    Hello!

    I am in the middle of the battle to lose 100lbs+! My starting weight was 290lbs. I am looking to drop to about 150lbs or so. My current weight is 248lbs. I'm with you! :happy:

    Count me in! I think it is great motivation when you can identify with others who have the big loss to work for....I started in Jan with a Y challenge in our town. Weighed 254.6 and lost 37 pounds in the 8 wk program. That put me at 217.6 ---got down to 213 and now am back at 216! First gain and not very happy so I need some motivation--quick! lol I am looking to lose 25 pounds by July 25. I know it can be done healthy-wise and easily in 6 weeks but now I only have 5! Gotta get with it. Let's help each other be a real loser!!!! :wink: GOOD LUCK EVERYONE.

    We should seriously start a team. I think it would help with the motivation factor. Anyone in?

    I have about 120 pounds to lose. My high weight was 273 and now I weigh about 245. I'm up a little bit from 241 due to some recent bad behavior, but I want to stop it before it all comes back. Count me in for the motivation!!!:flowerforyou:

    I just wanna tell ya'll you can do this. If I can do this the biggest junk food junkie out there yall can do this. I started my journey 10 months and 2 days ago and as of this morning I have lost 114.2 pounds, my goal is to lose 125 pounds. I hope to be ther by aug 17 2009, my year anniversary. I started my journey at the biggest weight ever 275 and this morning I weighed in at 160.8.

    I promise its a long hard struggle but well worth it in the end.

    As of my weigh in yesterday, I have 100 lbs to reach my goal. I have been at this for a little over 9 weeks and lost 20 lbs. so far.

    SW: 245
    CW: 225
    Next Interim Goal: 220 July 4th, 2009
    Next Interim Goal: 200 Labor Day, 2009
    Ultimate Goal: 125 -- shooting for July 4th 2010:drinker: :drinker:

    The support I have gained on this site has been a tremendous help to me. Great people, and good information. Some of the "Food Police" get a little intense, but I believe in "live and let live." The most dogmatic of the "Food Police" recently left the site, so I hope that makes it more comfortable and supportive for all.

    Good luck to everyone on their journey, whether it is 5 lbs or 150 lbs., we all know "it don't come easy," and we know ya "got to pay your dues." (Sorry, I still like the Beatles, I don't apologize for being a "boomer.":laugh:

    Good morning!!

    I am joining in on this journey too.....................

    I need to lose more than 100 pounds, but have my goal set to 120 pounds so far. I may change that once I get down to the 130 mark.

    Here I come, someone open the door to the train. We are going for a ride. I am starting today. I weight 350lbs, trying to get back down to 240lbs by end of this year.

    Aggressive, heck yeah.. but if you do not reach for the stars, you shall never catch a falling star :smile:

    We can do this, believe me I need to do this. :angry: so there is no other option.

    As of today I have 100 pounds to lose. I started at 292! I can't believe i was only 8 pounds from 300! Today I weight 280 :) 20 pounds from 300 is a lot better then 8!!

    My Goal is to be 180-ish by May 2010 - when I graduate from College :)
