Hello-I'd love to make some friends (90-100lbs to lose)

So, I've done MFP in the past and it definitely helped keep me motivated. This time around I want to try to get more involved in the community here. I'm 31 and looking to lose a pretty hefty chunk of weight (about 100lbs). I'm determined to experience a normal BMI in my adult life. I am also working on meeting some general health goals, beyond weight loss. I'm a nurse working full time and am also in grad school. I'm busy but I figure if anything is worth making time for it's my health. Excited to meet some of you and if anyone has similar goals and wants a buddy for the ride I'd love to make friends. :)

    Well I am 40 but I also have about 100 pounds to lose. I did myfitnesspal in 2015 and lost 60 pounds. Unfortunately I gained about 30 back last year. This year I would like to lose it all this year. If we lose 2 pounds a week we will have lost 100 pounds by 1-1-18!

    I'm 34, and three kids later I have 100 pounds to lose for pre baby weight but I'm striving for 70 for now.
    I've been tracking my food for the past two weeks and luckily I'm down 9 pounds, the first week was a shock to my body because of how much sugar and carbs I used to consume. Now I'm eating clean with a coffe a day and I give myself one day for a craving if I have one.
    I'm trying to take it 10 pounds at a time so I don't become overwhelmed with the big number and the next year I have in store.
    This is my lifestyle change not a diet. "Eat less, do more". Type of thing.
    Add me, I love sharing motivation and recipes.

    I lost 83 lbs using MFP before, but I gained 117 lbs back after getting married and experimenting with different anxiety medications. I'm back and hoping to lose 150 lbs. Anyone that would like to add me is welcomed to! :smile:
