in Getting Started
Hello - I am restarting MFP after losing 70-ish pounds a few years ago, only gaining it back plus way more. I am looking for like-minded people who are wanting to get their lives back but have 100 pounds or more to lose!!! I lead a pretty sedentary lifestyle right now and I'm ready to change that. We were blessed by a free gym membership from my hubby's employer and I'm ready to finally start utilizing it....we have 2 tweens who also need to lose weight and both of us work full time away from home; the gym is 1/2 hour away. If we can't get there to swim/workout, I will be doing a lot of walking around my little town and just making sure that I am logging everything that I eat/drink!!

    My starting weight and goal weight are 120 pounds apart! I'm about 40 pounds down and 80 to go.

    I like having friends with similar goals, and I'm also a member of a great group for people with 100+ pounds to lose!

    Hi

    I have 81 lose which seems daunting. Im starting today and going to break it down into smaller goals of 10% of my body weight. I feel it's more positive for me. This app is all new to me. But really looks helpful. Can't wait to do a week and see a few pounds drop off. Would love some friends on here so please feel free to send me a friend request and maybe we can help each other along.

    Have lost 20 pounds many times but inched upward. Now, I have to lose as much as possible for medical reasons. Today is Day 2. First goal is 80 pounds. Will then hope for another 70. I'm not even sure if that is possible, but I keep telling myself every pound counts. Just checked out about 5 other trackers but decided to return to and upgrade MFP. Good luck to you - and to all of us!

    I need to lose around 100, too, and it's going to take longer than I like, I'm afraid. I started a program through my doctor's office to help with motivation a couple of weeks ago, and it helps me not to cheat since I have to weigh in once in awhile.

    I had 93# to lose. I'm 11# down. I'm focusing on 10# at a time, so I don't get disheartened or overwhelmed. But I didn't put it on overnight, and I won't lose it overnight.

    My cureent goal is to lose 100 pounds. So far I have lost approximately 35 pounds and have 65 to go. I graduate college in December at the heaviest I have ever been and I am determined to reverse that. I made my New Year's resolution to lise 100 pounds this year and so far I have stuck to it and have no intentions of turning back. I know we all can do this. You all have my support in your own journeys. Feel free to add me as a friend here! Good luck everyone!

    I hope to lose 130 pounds. It seems like a far off dream.
