I'm going to be starting the 21 day fix next week 
I've been up and down with my weight through most of my life. I'm now at the heaviest I've been. I have about 75 to 80 lbs to lose. Since it's a huge amount, I'm just focusing on 10 lbs at this point. Is anyone else in the same position (or has anyone started this with a lot of weight to lose).
I'm looking for motivation/support I use to be more active/fit however it's been about 2 years. I had a baby in May 2015. I scaled back my workouts to walking and some elliptical when I was pregnant. It's been hard to find the time to be active once I returned back to work. Ironically I gained 40 lbs while being pregnant and lost 32 of it. I slowly started gaining it back after I stopped nursing and went back to work

I started my weight loss 3 years ago with about 100 lbs to lose. Seemed nearly impossible but I started focusing on 10 lbs at a time like you and seems like in no time I had lost 110 lbs!! Focusing on those small victories is how I got through it. After that I found it very difficult to maintain... I was either losing weight or gaining weight. Now that I've started the 21 day fix I feel more balanced. I would like to lose about 20 lbs right now and I'm doing it 5 pounds at a time. I'm also trying to focus more on how I feel and look rather than focus on the scale. During my first round of the 21DF I only lost 1 pound but lost 4 inches off my waist!9

I will be 50 years old 31/12/2017 and having lost 70lbs already over the past 6 years following a low carb high protein high fat content diet, I have an additional 54 lbs to lose on my Doctor's advice.
I would very much like to set a target of 50 lbs to lose before I hit 50. I would really appreciate it if you added me as a friend for mutual support as I embark on day 2 of my first 21 DF round.
Something I am finding difficult at the moment, is eating all of the food! There is so much of it!1 -
Yes there are days where i dont get all my veggies in. Lot of food in those little containers lol1

Hello! Id like to join you! Starting 21df today 0

I have 65lbs to lose - I started 21DF today - I'm not following meal plan or drinking shakeology - I bought french vanilla protein powder from GNC called LeanShake 25 or something like that (i'm at work). It tastes pretty good as long at it's mixed with milk... how is everyone doing? Room seems pretty quiet....0

I have about 70-75 lbs to lose and am on day 2 of 21df. I've done some rounds before and fell off the wagon. I'm not following the meal plan either angiepangiehfx but rather logging them with mfp. I do a Visalus shake (much better reviews on taste vs shakeology). I used to do Visalus a long time ago and just buy them through Amazon now.1

I don't like 21-day fix - I find it boring - trying Insanity0
-
I have about 70 lbs to lose. I'm on day 4.0
-
I have about 30 lbs to go and I'm starting on monday!0
-
Yep, 70lbs to lose here. I'm feeling motivated, I don't want to spend my 40's sore and lethargic.0

I have fifty pounds to lose but am nursing. I've read up on some recommended adjustments so my supply doesn't drop. I feel good about it right now (in the evening-when I'm well fed) but my motivation is always gone in the morning. Still I'm officially starting in the morning... will see how it goes!0
