    Hi. I've got 56 lbs to lose, and honestly, I'm not sure how I'm going to accomplish this. It's a little overwhelming, you know?

    I will add you as a friend and we can motivate each other. :) It is overwhelming at times but just remember every little bit the scale goes down it will add up to a larger number in the long run.

    I need to lose 29 more pounds to reach my goal weight, which can be achieved by June as long as I continue to work towards my goal. Losing weight the healthy weight is definitely going to take some time, but time really does go by fast, and 6 months from now you can be down 30lbs! Don't let the slow process deter you! Don't! Set realistic goals for yourself - my goal is to lose 4 pounds a month - nothing that is crazy and daunting. Try to eat small portions at meal time, drink lots of water (to help fill your belly), and don't restrict yourself too much - otherwise, you'll just flip out and eat everything you kept telling yourself you couldn't have. Any treat that I want, I'll buy ONE and just eat the ONE; I can't trust myself around much more, but I am satisfied with having one treat. You'll get used it all it, eventually...JUST KEEP GOING. Life isn't all about broccoli and carrot sticks. You just have to find a nice balance and see what works for you. Good luck!

    Hi folks, I have 80 lbs to lose I was told by my family doctor that I have NASH. Which is an acronym for some big medical term that in short means a fatty liver. Unfortunately this has caused me to have non alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver. So lose 100 lbs or I will die of cirrhosis. Started out at 304 lbs down to 279.4 so ya I can use all the encouragement I can get. :)

    Hello everyone, I have about 50 pounds to loose to reach my goal weight too. I am starting back on here in hopes of making a huge lifestyle change! My dad has been battle colon cancer for a few years now and it's beginning to spread throughout his body :'( ...he's young and I want to make these changes to prevent myself from being at high risk of colon cancer too. I have a 14 year old daughter I need to be around for. :)

    Good Luck Everyone !
