2016 didn't turn out as I hoped as to my weight loss so I am going to make 2017 my year. I need to lose a total of 100 pounds. I see a dietician once a week who is helping me get and stay on track but I could use all the support I can get.

    Best wishes on your journey. Does your dietician set up macros limits for you as well. This is the key in my opinion. Good luck!

    You don't look like you need to lose 100 pounds, but wishing you the best of luck on your weight goal!

    I also have the 100 pounds in 2017 goal. 100 pounds. That doesn't sound so bad. 2 pounds a week for a solid year. Yeah, I can do that. I'm a serial starter. I always start off well. I lost 40 pounds a year or so ago, and then added it back on with interest. The thing I'm going to do different this time is use social media to my advantage. I HATE social media, but if it helps keep me accountable, then I will get over it. I WILL achieve my goal this year. I have a plan, but I tend to get burned out on it. I will need help with that.

    I had a goal of 200lb to lose. To date, I've lost 77.4lb in 5 months with help from Sanford Profile. I have 122.6lb left to go. 2017 here I come! With you as a new MFP friend I hope!

    Fantastic! I need to lose 91 pounds, and well, if I don't do it this year...when the heck am I going to do it?! Looks like I've had the same problem many folks have had - lose 20 lbs and gain it back (with interest.) Please feel free to add me.

    Also have about 100 pounds to lose by the end of 2017! Right now I feel good but I'm also a "serial starter". I'm doing everything I can to stay motivated. I don't want to keep repeating the same cycle. I just absolutely have to lose it this year. Let's all do this!

    I can sympathize with the "serial starter." No better time than the beginning of a new year. LET'S KEEP EACH OTHER MOTIVATED!!!

    I've been at this a about a year and a half. I love MFP, but unfortunately have had too many friends drop off over time. There are still some faithful friends working hard, but I would love some more! I can't remember how to send friend requests in the community, but if your interested, send me a request. I am going to lose 75 pounds this year!
