    Hi everyone,

    Can I get in on this, too? :smile: I'm the same height. I lost over 30 lbs a couple of years ago and then gained it back. I want to lose that 30 again. I did it with Nutrisystem last time but then I hit a wall, got frustrated, was getting tired of the food. I know what to do and how to do it (more or less!) and I've lost a few pounds the last few weeks. It's the motivation that needs boosting.


    Hello! More the merrier! Ugh, I hate how that happen with losing and gaining, happened to me too :( lost 50lbs after my daughter then gained it after my son.

    I too lost interest after regaining weight, it's so frustrating after all the previous work lol. But that's why we are here-- to re-ignite our motivation

    Definitely similar! Thanks for the add! If you need anything feel free to message me.

    Mine is set to sedentary as well, but I have it set to lose 2lbs a week... I put my goal calories at 1300 a day, which if eating healthy enough keeps me extremely full. Sometimes I find I can only eat 1200 calories.

    I wish I could feel full after 1200 calories! Sometimes I feel 1400 isn't enough, I love food lol. However, I have noticed my hunger decreasing and I'm starting to feel content with less food this past week. I've been too scared to set it to two pounds a week, maybe when I get used to entering I'll change it. I'd rather lose weight slightly faster, as it already takes forever lol

    I am 5'6 and I have a mini goal for 30. I have more than that, but 30 lbs. at a time is a good start.

    I don't have goal weight, per se, just a more active, healthier lifestyle. Of course, I'd be over the moon to be in ONEderland!

    Feel free to add me!

    Per previous post- I'm 5'11" started @ 258# (the most I've ever weighed...how did it happen ??) set my plan for 1.5#s/wk which gives me 1365 cal/day...activity sedentary because of my knee...goal 175 which is the high end of the BMI/Weight chart for my height but I'm very large boned :) ! I lost 10#s in a month because I don't usually get to 1365 and with a lot of weight to lose pounds usually come off faster in the beginning. I did start out for a few weeks @1#/wk just to get my body acclimated to fewer calories & my mind wrapped around & embracing the process. It has worked well for me & im so mindful now of protein, fat, sodium & vitamins. I've added a multivitamin & fiber gummies. My weigh in today I'm down 23#s. 7 wks until Mothers Day...my goal is to lose 10#s which I think is doable. I'm eating lots of veggie soups & poached eggs w/Pepperidge Farm Light 100% Wheat bread toasted, Fage Greek yogurt & I'm starting to really enjoy raw veggies & hummus.
