Hi, I'm just wondering if people on here are looking to loose 100+ pounds
I would share my stats but I'm afraid ):
So, anyone? I've only lost 4 pounds so far, but I want to lose 12 pounds until my next goal weight, and then I want to loose another 80 pounds
anyone else in the same situation? maybe we can help each other out! (:

EDIT:
OH! And I want to lose 20-30 pounds before Halloween, do you think that's possible?

    I need...sigh...to lose 245. I'm 15 lbs into that, and it'll be a long road, but a very, very worthwhile road! Good thing I'm tall so it's not AS obvious how much I need to lose.

    I've lost 100. Add me if you have any questions. I started exactly where you are. I was 285 pounds and not active at all. Hated to sweat. I've lost 100 pounds, I'm a size 12. I'm in excellent shape. I've biked 228 miles so far this month. It is possible and you CAN do it.

    I am a recent join as well, started at 295 and checked this morning-292. I'm determined to get this done once and for all. I'm working on getting myself addicted to the euphoria of excercising rather than eating. My goal weight is around 140 which is above the 'healthy' weight for my height but I can adjust once I'm there.
    20-30 before halloween is completely possible but you have to want it and work for it.

    I'm in the same boat! I'm new to this website and am hoping that this site will help me stay on track! I'm looking for people to "friend" me, so I can have a great support group! My ultimate goal is yes, to lose 100+ lbs. Today is day 1 of my new "lifestyle change". So I'm hoping people out there can help me do this! I'll support you also! My current weight is 238.5 and my 1st goal is to get down to 200. I know I can do this! Just want support! :)

    I started a doctor supervised weight loss in February, weighing in at 331lbs. Over the course of this program I've lost 85lbs, with another 40 to go to reach my goal weight.

    Losing large amounts of weight is completely doable, and now that I've lost the 85lbs life is so much different than before! I'm really enjoying my new lease on life.

    Do your weight loss in small chunks of weight at a time, otherwise you'll choke on the effort. My clinic set weight loss goals in the form of 10% of body weight in 5 weeks. So first goal was to lose 33lbs, then 30lbs, followed by 27lbs, etc. My Doc's advice was just remember, "Given enough time you can move a mountain one bucket at a time."

    Good luck! Losing a 100lbs will definitely change your life, it has for me.

    I started my diet on Feb. 9, 2011 at 242 lbs. as of right now I am at 179 lbs. so it is possible...my best advice to you is limit your carbs (I eat 25 grams or less a day), and drink lots and lots of water.

    My goal is to reach 100 pounds lost and then see how much more I want to lose after that. I've lost 64 so far, so I'm over halfway there. You can do it!

    Hey my goal is about 100 lbs, I've only lost about 4 lbs so far also and my ticker says 88 lbs to go, but really my goal is about 100 lbs, I just want to see what I look like when I reach the 88 or so. Feel free to add me, anyone on this thread. I find that taking part in different challenges here has helped me a lot... motivates me more to not only eat healthy but to get the exercise in everyday. We can all motivate each other and even better we will all have similar goals, tasks, and difficulties due to our weight and our goal.

    I agree with taking part in the challenges. I wasn't sure what it would be like, but the support and motivation you receive is phenomenal.

    My goal is to lose 111lbs, im getting married in April and hope to be 80+ lbs down by then. I hope this is a realistic goal, im just not really sure!

    I've lost 70 lbs with another 35 lbs to go, totaling 115 lbs. Goal weight 150 lbs.

    I was scared at first because I didn't believe it was even possible for me to lose 115 lbs. But I thought I'll give it a try and see what happens. 70 lbs later I have a whole new perspective on my life. Don't think about the total amount you want to lose, focus on small goals 10, 15 or 20 lbs at a time.

    Feel free to add me! Good luck!
