    I'm 41, a woman, a mom. My starting weight was over 350lbs. My current weight is 171.9. If my junk food loving butt can do this, anyone can. It took me 3 years (I took a year off to do a massive recomp and let me skin catch up a bit). I'm back to lose another 5lbs at a time.

    You can do this. Feel free to FR me, pick my brain, I post weird tips and ideas that help (or have helped) me out.

    yasss i def will <3 you are proof that it can be done if we focus and keep our minds set!!

    I'm also looking to lose 100+ pounds and I am feeling very overwhelmed and alone. I would love some people to talk to who are going through the same thing.

    We got you! I am not going through the same thing....but for me it is all the same. It is all about the process (which is really commitment, dedication and perseverance....and the proper mindset).

    I am right there with you. The highest my weight got to was 271. I am focusing on reaching 170 right now (it is the weight I was in high school), and then if I lose more great. My goal is to be down to that this time next year, so my husband and I can finally go to an amusement park together and go on the roller coasters. :)

    Feel free to add me, I love making new friends!

    Way to go on taking the first step toward a new healthier lifestyle. Last year I lost more than 100 lbs in 8 months and 4 days. Set short term goals as well as your long term goal. Take frequent progress pictures... even if you are the only one to see them. Make sure to take a picture now.... you want something to compare your progress to. The pictures will help to show you progress even when the scale may be slow to do so. All of you can do this! Set your mind to it.... keep the focus. Read success stories along the way... surround yourself with others that will help to encourage and motivate you. There will be challenging days... but push through them. The hard work is worth the outcome!!


    That is super inspiring <3 100lbs in 8 months! Congrats on being so hardworking and motivated!!! :)

    Thank you!! Once I got started and seeing the results, I just wanted to see more results. Almost a year now since I lost that weight. Have done decent maintaining. It can be difficult, but it is so worth it.

    Same story here: SW 340 CW, after almost 11 weeks with MFP, 310. Most days I just follow the plan and the wt is coming off. But there are always some days where it is just hard work. I've been trying to focus on those hard days to understand better ways to just hang on and get to tomorrow. I don't want to stop this time and often 24 hours later it is better.

    I started at 265lbs, lost 67lbs, got hurt, gained back 35lbs, and now I'm down to 223lbs. At times I have a wicked sugar addiction that I'm learning to curb. At 5'3 I should be about 135lbs (that's pushing it). I'm always open to new people.

    I started a couple weeks ago. I was 237 which is the highest I have ever been. That I includes being 9 months pregnant 18 years ago. I would love to lose 100 lbs but I want to do it in sections. So my goal weight now is 170. I have lost 2 lbs already. My life is very chaotic right now. My sweet momma passed away in January. My family were living w her and caring for her the past year. We are currently selling her house and we are moving out in in a couple weeks. It is bittersweet. This summer we are planning 2 vacations. I need to stay on track with my eating. I am trying very hard to lose .5 lb a week. Thank you for listening and please keep me in your prayers.

    You can do this for sure! I've lost almost 130 pounds so far. I won't lie, for me it was a process - meaning, I first lost about 85 and maintained, then another 20, maintained and so forth. I still want to lose 15 more as I have always dreamt of being 155 pounds :) Best of luck and contact me with anything!

    At my highest I was 308. I got down to 203 but some “life” things happened and I am now at 225 (which still is great for where I came from at 308. I lost the 105 in about 10 months. I’m back on it because I am getting married in November and want to be 199!!! I have 26 pounds in four months which is aggressive but I am working out as well. You can do it!!!

    My current weight is 248. I am wanting to be close to at least 150. I am only 5'5" so my ideal weight would actually be 149 by BMI charts. I would be happy to cheer you on and be part of a group that is looking for similar results!
