I would like to lose about 40 lbs before attending a music festival in mid-June. Restarting MFP for the 758th time, it feels like. I don't have any friends currently on here and would love to add some new ones for support and motivation.
Feel free to add me! Let's get girl0 -

Short term goal-- to lose the 50 I've gained and walk a half marathon this Summer.
Long term goal---I'd like to lose 80-90 all together
Between being sick, in and out of the hospital, different medications and an injury that lead to back surgery just 3 weeks ago my heath and physical fitness have gone way down hill in the last year. But I begin Physical Therapy this week and the road to recovery. I just hope I can find my selfdiscipline and my drive to keep with it.
You are already in the road to recovery thru your motivation. Wish you the best on your journey.

Happy Monday!!!
This past weekend was my kids’ birthdays. We have had lots of cake in the house lol. I stepped on the scale yesterday. Had lost 1lb from Wednesday weigh in despite all the sweets and food from Thursday till yesterday. I do need to get moving. Lack of motivation to work out even though I want to. It’s so hard with 2 babies (3yrs and 1yr) who also want your attention. Either way, I’m taking it one step at a time. This week it’s tracking everything I eat. Healthy or not healthy lol.

I've only been at this for a week but I am determined. Something snapped in me when I saw my weight was in the 250s. I have to get healthy for my daughter. I want to be around for as long as I can.
Anyone can feel free to add me as a friend. We are all in this together, lets keep each other motivated!
Yes we are!!! I’m in the same situation. Want to be healthy and there for my babies.1 -
I am getting inspired by each and every one of your posts! It feels good to not be alone on this journey.3

I want a place to be able to post regularly my progress and share other's progress and struggles. I lost 40 lbs on here when I had more time to exercise during the economic downturn. Once I got back to work full time it has come back. What I have achieved is to stop the gain. Now the goal is to get it turned back down. Since I have less time to exercise I have to address some challenges I didn't have to last time as to daily diet. My weight varies a lot so what I post as current weight will be the lowest weight I have achieved that week.1 -

Alright Mrs. Lady let's work it! I know sometimes it hard to get that workout in...if you're add the grocery park a little farther than usual or when it warms up on lunch break take a quick stroll! Any little thing helps just keep pushing!2 -

Count me in on this. I am have a B'day in May, I saw lot's of us have "May" goals. But my goal in for June 30th - I want to hit 190.
HSW: 258
Current SW - 237.8 (15th Jan)
CW: 226
Goals:
1) getting down - 215 - will want to go clothes shopping (I hope to be down a size)
2) get below 200, like 190-195 (so on fluctuation day I never see the 2 again)
3) set new goals. -> another 50 to go I guess.
It's slow and steady right now. I want it to stay that way. I think I can hit my goals by middle of this year - but I am nervous my current progress will slow down.
I am taking it one day at a time - so thanks for all the inspirational stories, and all the support.

I like this positivity in here!
I started in 2015 at 267.
Currently 193 ish. I was this weight a year ago.
I really want 175 by my birthday which is in July. Last year I said the same thing but couldn't stick to it. I am needing all the motivation I can get to stick to this!

The first time I lost weight almost 5 years ago, I officially started at 347. Even though I'd been losing weight before that time, I hadn't gotten on a scale. My best guess is that I was at least 375 -385 pounds. Over the next 15 months, I got as low as 235.
Over the next few years, I slowly began regaining the weight. I stopped exercising regularly, resumed bad eating habits and switched jobs which led to a lot of stress (and stress eating!)
I'm starting again for my health, to be there for my family, and to wear all of the great clothes that are sitting in my closet waiting to be worn again.4 -
Started this journey about 6 weeks ago at 225 with a 50lb loss goal down to 175 which is a comfortable sz 8/10 for me. I made that my immediate goal. I needed it to feel attainable. That said, my ultimate goal is closer to 150-155. So far so good on staying determined! I was down to 208.8 going into this week. My Garmin Tracker and the step challenges in the app have kept my fanny moving! I went from zero, pretty sedentary to now putting in 30,000-40,000 steps/day just so I didn’t lose my challenges! (I’m just a tad competitive... lol!)3
