Here goes...
I'm new to MFP. I've been dieting basically since I knew what it was, I have my weight-obsessed father to thank for that :)
The weight has slowly packed on over the past 7-8 years, and I'm faced now with 70 pounds to lose. And I want it gone. Like yesterday.

Anybody out there with similar sentiments? Or similar weight to lose? Strength in numbers, and all that...!

    I started with about 60 pounds to lose and I'm so ready for it to be gone, but it's a slow process.

    Feel free to add me :) I'm a daily user

    I'm new as well ... have also been dieting as long as I can remember ... but I have a weight-obsessed mother to thank for that!

    I have about 30 pounds to lose (i think that is the corect conversion as we work in kilograms in Australia).

    My weight was fantastic until about four years ago, when a bad relationship and the mental health issues associated with it turned me to food, 30 pounds later I left. I'm very good at maintaining my weight now, but need help on the losing it side, so I've joined here. My boss lost 30 pounds last year using it so hopefully it works for me as well!

    Good luck :-)
