    I'm back on MFP and have about 100 to lose, but my first "Big" goal is to get under 200. I need new, active friends since I've been gone for a while. :)

    Not quite that much to lose, but here are some techniques that helped me. Don't eat within 3-4 (or more) hours of sleep. Yes you will be hungry, but think of the hunger pangs as a "PacMan" that is eating up the fat. Also, a lot of the world goes to bed hungry and gets up hungry, but I know I'll be able to have breakfast. Also, the hunger pangs help me to pray and contribute through a Christian ministry to aid those less fortunate.

    Another aid is collagen hydrolysate, available through greatlakesgelatin.com (I'm uncompensated). Do your own research. This has the added benefits of helping your hair, nails, and joints, while stimulating the human growth hormone while you sleep (unverified). Drink lots of water when hungry and practice the Kegel exercises (Men and women) when you void. All kinds of added benefits and it keeps your mind off food.

    Good luck! BTW I've lost 15 pounds in about six weeks, with 45 to go.

    I started at 356 and I weighted in at 264 yesterday! I want to be in Wonderland! I may have had weight loss surgery, but motivation and support goes a long way and I could use any you are wiling to share. Feel free to add me.

    I have over 100 to lose...again. Lost 90 lbs about 5 1/2 years ago, but let a miscarriage and then the birth of my now 4 year old son totally derail me. Just started back a week ago. You'd be surprised how much the connections on MFP can keep you encouraged and focused, especially on the tough days. :) Excited for you all.
