Hi all,

I'd be keen to get some more friends who are in this for the long haul and looking to lose 75lb or more!

It'd also be great to meet people who are on track to reaching this goal.

Please add me and we can support each other on this epic journey.

All the best,

Katie :)

    I would like to lose 80 lbs. I have been on this 2.5 weeks and it is going great. Cravings gone, no problem not eating in between meals, feel great, etc. I have lost a significant amount of weight in my belly. I don't know the numbers because I will not weigh myself. Weighed in on the day I started, but that is it. The scale if a total mind eff and the devil (to me). I have not problem whatsoever not weighing myself. I can tell by how I look and my clothes that I am doing well.

    Hi Everyone. Today I started my journey. I cant say that I haven't tried this before, I was partially successful and then failed. My follow through is awful. Long term, long term! I need to keep that at the forefront.

    I think as I get older I become more afraid of the inevitable and I am scared that my weight is going to be the very thing that takes me out. I have way too much to live for. I don't know if there is a "Rock Bottom" but I may have hit it. I need to learn to how to "Eat to live" instead of living to eat. The struggle is real.

    My Name is Donna, I am 45 years old and I am eager to becoming a healthier me. I could use all the support I can get. With that being said, if you are reading this and can use an extra friend or have any advice, please advise. :)

    Thank you for taking the time to read this. I wish you all well on a healthier new you!

    P.S. How do you enjoy your water? Does your body digest it the same with a slice of lemon in it?

    Hi everyone! I’m working towards losing 100 pounds. I’m finally starting to enjoy going to my local rec center to walk/treadmill. I’m going 5xs per week. So that’s a win for me. Anyone that would like to add me please do! We can help support each other.

    I've already lost 63 of my 75, I'm no longer overweight, and the last 12 pounds is just to get me to the middle of the healthy weight range. it's taken two years with the occasional bump along the way but gosh it's been worth it. Keep your eye on the goal and Good Luck!

    I went from my 130's to the 220's in less than a year when menopause hit me very hard, I've been heavy for about 3 years and have developed arthritis. Now I'm trying to lose 80. My goal is a moving target. I don't feel the need (at this point) to get back to my pre-meno weight.

    Lost 75 pounds a couple of times and back at it, again. My diary is open, and I log regularly. Please feel free to add me if you'd like.

    We have a trip to Europe planned in 6 months, and I've set a goal to be down another 50 pounds or so and log 500 miles walking.
