Hi all, I'm Dani. I have about (minimum) 60 lbs to lose and I'm looking for friends with similar goals to help me stay on track and accountable. Bonus if anyone has open diaries so I can get some food tips. This is my 3rd time back here, each time I lose 20-30 lbs but gain it all back then some. It is serious now as my Dr just put me on blood pressure meds and is referring me to a weight loss clinic. I'd really like to try to get the weight off on my own vs surgery :( Any tips are appreciated! Thanks

    This is my third time back using MFP. The first time, it helped me lose 70 pounds. The second time, when I started, I got pregnant and had my daughter. I'm afraid that I'll need to be put on meds soon so I want to nip it in the bud before it gets to that. I have a good 80+ pounds to lose. I'd love to have some support. Feel free to add me ♡ :)

    My goal when I started was to lose 46kg (101lb). I'm down 4kg (~9lb) after about 1,5 months (on and off track). I try to post regularly about daily struggles/successes and in the future I want to post more about workouts and recipes. I'm on a ketogenic diet (low-carb) and track my foods as best I can (even when I *kitten* up).

    Feel free to add me, everyone! <3

    Hi I have 65lbs to lose. Been yoyo-ing for years, and I had a baby Jan this year. I started back on here July 25th. I'm down 10 lbs so far. I would love to be at my goal by March 2017.

    I have between 50 and 70 to lose. 150 is my goal for now, and once I get there I will see how I feel and reevaluate from there. I have been keeping to my calories and working out for 15-30 minutes 2xs a day.

    Hey all, I originally had 140lbs to lose, down about 45 lbs. I took me two years to lose the 45lbs, and I've kept it off for over a year and a half, so would like to start losing again. I tend to go slow with minor changes to make sure I can maintain, but I'm getting frustrated with that approach.
    Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like!
