Ladies losing 100+lbs?

Welcome Niania97048 - Sounds like this could be the right community for us both! I can relate to what you have said. We are making a change and we are going to achieve our goals.

I've been on here a few times hoping to stay on this time I have limited mobility and having steroid injections which works against me as well as medication but I am 40 in august hoping to lose a good but before then as going on holiday also want to be healthy for my son. Good luck to you all feel free to add me

Hello All - I am 35, 5'6" and would like to lose 75 to 90 more pounds. I have struggled with my weight all my life and have tried "diets" numerous times throughout the years. I too struggle with health issues and medications that have put on pounds that in turn make my health issues worse - I am sick of this cycle and ready for a LIFE change! I started my new WOE on March 7th and have already lost 15 pounds and even more pleasing, I feel so much better already. I would love to have some friends to share this journey with!

Hello! I'm 25 years old and I'm 5'10", looking to lose 50lbs (or more, preferably). Not quite in the 100+ club, but I really need some motivation/accountability. I've gained about 25lbs in the past few months, and need to stop the downward spiral. I very recently joined this site to start recording how terrible my diet is, and where I need to fix things. I never have time to cook and I'm terrible with vegetables (I swear I buy them, and the next minute I look at them and they've gone bad). Just knowing there are people around who are in the same boat and can see my progress - or lack thereof - is something I hope will help myself and others.

Hey all! Me too! I'm 29, 6'2" and looking to lose 100+. I'm getting married next March and have never been more dedicated. I've lost about 30lbs since I started in January. But some accountability buddies would be great! Nice to meet everyone!

I'm in the boat with a LOT of weight to lose. I lost 10 pounds quite a while ago and kept it off, but stalled out. I'm super motivated to get back on track to lose the other 70 or so pounds and the more company the better since I'm terrible about being accountable to myself and no one else!

I just wanted to say thanks for starting this post. Thanks for sharing the same goal and hopefully I have managed to send requests to you all. "United we stand, divided we fall" So in keep with the motto, let us motivate and inspire each other to lose each and every pound unity and collaboration.

Hi all!

I'm 34 (rapidly approaching 35!), 5ft 6in, and from the U.K. I started on 12th January at 308lbs and I have lost 32lbs so far. I still have over 100lbs to lose so feel free to add!

This is about my 3rd attempt on MFP but its by far my most successful - 80day streak and no signs of slowing down or giving up - something just feels different this time around and I'm confident I'm gonna get to goal!

Hey Everybody, or should it be every buddy. I saw a dietician on Friday. She listened to what my goals were regarding the surgeries I need and the weight loss I must do first. My big issue is portion sizes. She went over what a serving size is with the cute models of foods. I learned what a serving of meat actually looks like. Honestly, I had no idea!

She also gave me a plate with 3 dividers in it, one slot for veggies, one for protein, and one for grains. I find it very useful for it gives me a visual of how much a portion is.

I learned I was even over doing the coffee creamer. I was just pouring it in until it was extra sweet. No wonder I wasn't losing weight.

I also start a support group at the local hospital for people like us who need to lose 100 or more. I've done the program before and gleaned a lot from it but it's time to go back and pick up where I left off.

It focuses on the psychology of over eating as opposed to the external approach of just counting calories and eating foods deemed healthy.
