    10lbs a month wow it takes most people 2 months to lose 10lbs
    Good luck everyone too harsh for me

    I tend to agree. I lost 10 pounds the first month I started on MFP, and then 5 pounds in the second month, and now 3 pounds thus far in March. I think I can aim for 7 pounds a month from April until September, which would be 35 pounds. Anything more would be nearly impossible to achieve when you factor in plateaus and potential exercise interrupters (such as injuries).

    I haven't received a request for you to join yet, maybe there's a bit of a lag with myfitnesspal, did you send the request to join the right group?

    Here's the link just in case :)

    Hi; I am once again beginning this today; I weight 295; 5' 3.5" and am having a knee replaced around June 1st; 2016; I am 65; and very sedentary. Would love to have support on this journey. I saw we are around the same weight; so though we may be able to help one another with this life changing experience.

    I like the idea of doing a Today I Will post in which we choose one way we will work on our goal. Even one thing is better than doing nothing...so Today I Will: Stick to my calorie goal and if in order to do so I need to add additional "steps" to my workout plan...I will!
