Lose 50lbs+ club

I managed to work out 3 days in a row. 3x 30 minute Hiit rides on peloton and 30 minute uphill walk after. I'm starting back to exercise after an accident left me with a torn acl, broken wrist and hand and I feel all my injuries still but it's tolerable. I have 60 lbs to lose. It seems really far off right now. And I wake up feeling so lazy and unmotivated until I force myself to sit on the bike. After I finish a class I feel like I want to do more but I really don't want to re-injure myself. I start with a trainer on May 15th - 2 wks after vaccines are all done. I can't wait. I really want to feel stronger and have energy and fit in my clothes. No more sugar for me!!!!

Hi all! I'm starting again and looking for motivation and support, hoping to add some friends!

I would like to join

@rmh2021 well done for working out, it will get easier as time goes on. I always found exercise a chore but now I actually can't wait to get out for a walk or get on the exercise bike and I've been surprised at how quickly it's become easier and how I can push myself to go that bit faster. Baby steps is the best way, Rome wasn't built in a day.

And of course, I am probably wrong.

Hello everyone!! I'm so in! I'd love to loose around 50 to 60 lbs! But it's so hard to do! Fingers crossed that I can do it!!

Ok so I am closing out the work week having worked out every day! It's too soon to see movement on the scale but I feel good. I am going to weigh myself 1x a week. I have a digital scale that reports to my phone in an app called Feelfit and it tells me my weight, bmi, body fat, etc. Where I am not liking the data now I think it will be helpful to watch those metrics go down over time. What I know I need to work on is drinking more water (I hate drinking plain water) so that's something I need to force myself to do. I wish I could drink 2-3 litres like @kelMee2. (well done you!) But overall I am excited for sticking this out and getting active feels great really. My mood is better, my sleep is better, and I am starting to feel energized by exercising instead of dreading it. Here's to sticking to the plan for the weekend and into a new week! Good luck everyone!

I did not exercise yesterday. I'm disappointed in retrospect but I felt exhausted and just was lame. Today I am back at it. Riding the bike for 30 min hiit and a 30 min hill walk after which I have to tackle soon before it is too hot. I started no dairy today. I'm trying oat milk which is not bad. I can't wait until the day I don't think about what I am going to eat so much. Right now I give it too much thought. I'm going for 6-8 bottles of water each day starting today too. Good luck everybody.

@WandaMcAlary1 sending hugs, try not to lose motivation, if you've lost inches take it as a non scale victory, you could also be retaining water as your body repairs all the muscles you're using in your exercises and might just suddenly get a whoosh and a good loss. Make sure you're eating enough and not underestimating calories burned, I made this mistake and was burning more calories than I thought and not eating enough and my body held on to the weight until I upped my calories then I saw a good loss.

I have 80lbs to lose. Just at the beginning of the journey and hope I can still with it. I tend to yo-yo up and down and never get back to my ideal wight. I am hoping that with willpower and some friendly support this time will be different. Not sure how I see other posts but I am here for anyone who needs support and cheering up when it gets a little difficult. Good Luck to us all.

@nevergiveup812mfp That's exactly the reason I'm here, lost the weight 2 years ago put some back on then during the last year put the rest plus more on. So back to start again, my starting weight was 220lbs on the 8th of March this year, that's the heaviest I've ever been, looking to lose between 60 and 70lbs to get me to where I want to be. I'm making progress but still have a long way to go so hoping all the lovely people here will help motivate and support me to reach my goal and I'll do the same for all of you, together we can do this.

Hi everyone, im in... I need to lose around 70lbs, i lack motivation and would really appreciate any tips, tricks, or even a helpful push in right Direction.. X

Hello everyone, I'm not new to MFP, but I'm starting from scratch. I had real success on MFP and lost a lot of weight a few years back, I was running 3-4 times a week, had joined a local running club (safety in numbers for those dark evening runs), was doing yoga and feeling really good. Then, I had an accident and fractured my back and it was a long slow process to get back to some sort of normality again. In the mean time I gained back all the weight and then some. So here I am, 197lb as of today with about 60lb to lose. I could use all the support I can get, and will happily cheer on everyone here too. 😊
