    I also have JUST started a couple of days ago and have a very long way to go. I am planning on losing 100+ as well, so we can be accountability buddies if you want. :)

    I'm in for the long haul, I'm 43 and started 20 days ago. You can ALL do this, I've been struggling on some stuff, but it seems to be sorting itself out!

    By all means Add me! I take pride in supporting and encouraging others!

    Anyone of you, feel free to add me. I am 40, and when I started out, I was 252 pounds. I am 187 now, and my goal WAS 160, but I think 150 is about right. That would put me at over 100 to lose in total. :-)

    I'm new here too! I'm big for starting projects but not finishing them. Will need encouragement often! LOL I am 36 and am 350 lbs now and my goal weight is 170. Seems like a lot, but I'd be happy to be back in 18/20 clothes!

    P.S. I'm a Christian and totally depending on God's help in this journey! Any fellow Christians?

    Feel free to add me! I'm here for the long haul & just getting RE started... Started back on 12/6 and digging my feet in for the duration until I get rid of ATLEAST 50 lbs... If I get down to 185 & still want to lose more I may jump on that too! Not sure.... But I'm here to do what I gotta do!

    I'll be 45 in February and working super hard because I am getting married in June. I started last year and lost 25 pounds, then had thyroid surgery and gained back 12 of those pounds ... finally getting meds straightened out and joined Curves last month. My first weigh-in is tomorrow. Please feel free to add me.

    I would bug you with quips and banter and some motivational stuff peppered in between. I have lost 96lbs and not quite 41. More like 34. My journey and accounts of progress can be found here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/403233-lost-96lbs-and-made-top-10-in-physique-contest

    I would like to be friends. I am trying to lose more than 100 pounds and think this program would be a cool way to track everything. I think having a friend to keep me "honest" and we could help each other when we need it. If you are interested, I will send a friend request.
