Anyone trying to lose 75-100lbs?

Options
After recently having two babies back to back and gaining 130 pounds. And then going to visit my sister in Puerto Rico and sitting on a beach looking at all these beautiful woman and wanting to cry, I decided that I needed to start now. My current weight is 265. My goal is 135 I'm 5'3. Anyone want to add me please feel free. I'm totally new to this and honestly working out as I've always was small until pregnancy.

    I can relate to your experience at the beach! I am looking to lose 50+ pounds, and wearing a bathing suit is not fun for me either. You've already taken the first step, you're on your way! Many of us need that extra push and encouragement. We can do this!

    Hi there! I started at 215 four months ago and I am now 182. I'm 21 and 5'2, for reference. This has been the most weight loss I have ever seen. I never thought it would be possible for me, but it is happening.

    You can do this! Set small and achievable goals, don't dwell on the fact that you might have a long way to go, and try to keep yourself motivated. Try to make weight loss easy and fun. Good luck! :)

    You can do it! I was 263 last September. Lost a bit last fall but the majority since March and I'm now ~227-228 lbs (bouncing up and down in that range for 2 weeks now grrr). My goal is 145 lbs (I'm 5'4"), at which point I will reevaluate and see if I need to recomp.

    You got this!

    Feel free to add me! I have an almost 2 year old and although I was fortunate to not gain weight while pregnant I gained a ton after he was born because my activity level dropped so much.

    You can add me we can support each other. I would like to loose 150 pounds. I have 3 grown kids and hit menopause so it is definitely harder to loose.
