    I am just starting out, too. My goal is to lose 95lbs, but when I reach that, I am going to make the decision to lose another 15 - 20 lbs. I am here to support & encourage you.

    Feel free to add me if you wish - I had well over 100 pounds to lose when I started. I've been at it since April and I still have a long way to go (I'm not sure exactly how much, but I'll know when I get to a comfortable weight.) I probably have around 100 still to go, but maybe a little less - we'll see. Good luck on your journey!

    I joined it shortly after finding MFP and it was truly instrumental in helping me shed the weight and get the support I needed.

    Feel free to add me! I've been at this for nearly 2 months now, and still have 175lbs-ish left to lose! I will be here for a while, that's for sure, and I'm here for support if you'd need it! :D

    I have been honestly working on my weight loss for a few weeks now. From my heaviest last summer, I have lost 11 pounds. I have 99 more to go, although I may alter it as I get close and see what 130 lbs looks like on me.

    I am 52 and have been fighting my weight since my freshman year of high school, so I've been there, done that!

    I will be glad to support you on your weight loss journey. My brand new grandson and my son's recent weight loss are what are inspiring me right now. I'm proud of my son and want to see my grandson grow up!

    I started at 306.2 on 12/13/10. I weighed 250.8 this morning. I have 110.8lbs to go till I can join the army. I will say it's been a long year! I gave up for about 6 months do to some personal issues, but now that I am back, I am better then ever. My biggest advice is to wake up every morning and plan to succeed at your new lifestyle for the rest of your life. If you mess up that day try again the next day. I promise you one day it will just click and you will wonder why it was so hard in the first place. Another piece of advice is to not try to give everything up at once. I have tried giving up everything that's considered bad and unhealthy and I fail every time. Right now I just focus on eating most healthy and when I want junk food I make sure I eat the correct portion and I always log it. Also, make exercise something that is fun and enjoyable. If you know that you hate to run, don't tell yourself that your going to go out and run 30 mins because most likely you never will. I know that at my weight running is hard on me and for now I stick to walking as cardio. I enjoy my walks and they are doing wonders for me as far as losing inches go. Good luck and never give up, because you can do it!

    I joined this site a while ago, lost 40 lbs, hit a plateau and got discouraged and gained back about 6 lbs. So now I am starting fresh with even more determination. I have about 96 lbs to go. Lets do this!

    I'm brand new and have 100+ pounds to lose. I am a single mom and am genetically-inclined to be morbidly obese. My mom (who is still alive) is well over 500 lbs. I won't lie. I'm afraid. I have not had success with doctors--they take one look at me and just think she's fat, prescribe pills. Long story short, a friend turned me on to this site and I'm grateful for her. I thought I had escaped my genetics curse, but when I became pregnant at 27, I went from a size 12 (which was good for my frame) to a size 22. I've only gone UP the scale since then -- which was 12 years ago -- it's time to get rid of this because it's literally weighing me down. I just need someone who can relate, ya know? I mean the exercise tapes with skinny women telling me how "good" the "burn" feels is just unrealistic to me. But, I'm doing it, though. I cry and walk at the same time. Oh, did I mention that I can't run due to a torn ACL that my local hospital refused to operate on because they said I was "too heavy"?

    I have only 20lbs to lose , but I thought I share with you some free site that are useful.

    Remember it is a lifestyle challenge not a diet. 80% is what you eat and only 20% of workout that you do to lose weight.
    There are the things I eat all is moderated so no suffering just enjoying the food. Recipes are fast, easy, sugar, carbohydrate, salt low and sometimes free totally :) So it is healthy, but tasty.

    I'm pretty new to this too. As a Christmas present to myself, I joined a gym and hired a trainer one week ago. I started using this site again to track my food and exercise, and to be able to print the information out for my trainer. I had absolutely zero motivation to work out 8 days ago and was inimidated as hell to go back into a gym at this size but now I bring my workout clothes to work and can't wait to get off so I can go burn some calories. Amazing how just one small change can make a big difference. So far I've lost 7 lbs... I'm sure most of that was pre-work-out beer bloat, but still.. it's 7 lbs less on the scale! I feel great and motivated. BTW.. I have 150 lbs to lose.
