    I've been on here for a month and I want to lose about 50lbs as well. I joined a gym also - exercise is the easy part for me though. It's food...delicious, yummy food that is the harder part! MFP definitely helps me stay on track with the exception of the occasional "treat meal". As of today I am 9 lbs down. If I can do - you can do it!

    I'm working my way from ~280 to ~240. Just remember, it's along game. I've been restricting myself to one weigh-in a month. I used to weigh-in everyday but that is an easy way to screw up your psychological game. I find it easier to set the goals in MFP and focus on staying under my daily calories. My next official weigh-in is coming up on the 9th.

    I want 60 gone asap! I gave myself a timeline of six months to have at least 50 gone. I figure that's a good starting point and if I unfortunately only make 20 or 40 I'll still take that as a win and tweak my diet/workout regime. The hard part is not just staring at myself all day hoping that if I look long enough at unwanted mass will just melt off....if only. It's amazing how you can completely blind yourself to how much you've gained until one day you just realize exactly how big you've gotten.

    I'm new as well. Wanted to go from 240 to 150 at the least and I've made it to 226 as of today. I changed my diet and do what excerise I can with several broke toes. But that there is the thing I always come up with excuses as to why I can't work out . I have no real motivation. All I know is I want to get this baby weight off that I gained while pregnant.
