    Hi there, I'm working on losing about 120 pounds -- about 110 to go. :wink:
    I joined a group called the "over 200 club" here a few weeks ago and those ladies are AWESOME! We weigh-in on Fridays (mostly) and the biggest loser gets to choose our challenge for the week.

    This week we're working on pushups & situps, last week was trying 2 new forms of exercise, some weeks it's focusing on water intake, etc.

    There is an over 200 group and an over 300 group. I used to be over 300 but am well below now, but the people on that thread are awesome.

    I saw your profile that you are 47. I am as well and it is possible at our age to succeed here.

    Good luck on your weight loss journey

    Ok, only a moment to post, yes, I still have over 100 lbs to lose to make my goal which is not really all that low but it seems SO FAR AWAY, how the heck did that happen. I've had the lap band and the weight is still SO SLOW to come off, but no worries. I am down 42 and only 120 to go....it will happen if we don't quit.

    Good Luck CC

    I started in April with the ulitmate goal of losing 120 lbs. As you can see, I am about 30% there.

    As you know, "MFP is the place to be":flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    BTW, I suggest you go into Tools and add a ticker to your forum signature. It really is motivating to see how far you have come.

    I'm also a wanna be Centurian.

    I've only been on MFP since August, but started in Jan 2009. MFP helped me refocus my efforts.

    I'm amazed at how much better I feel just being 33 lbs lighter. Just getting up out of my chair is so much easier. I've also got to the point where I look forward to me next work out, weather it's running, wieghts, or calestinics.

    I've learned to enjoy the process, because it will certainly take some time.

    Start by making small changes in your life, and it will go a lot easier. Do some research about your current diet. My first step was cutting my pop/soda intake to 44oz a week. (it's down to 12 oz) That alone saved me enough calories for a pound a week. Just get a little better every day, and soon you'll be contemplating which 5K should be your first race.

    I am right there with you - You can do this!!!

    One piece of advice I would give you is make it a point to record you food intake everyday.
    I have noticed the times when I am diligently recording every scrap I put in my mouth are the weeks I lose the most! When I slack off and am not quite on top of what I ate, it definitely is reflected in the scale.

    I must say it is very inspirational to read how many people have the +100 b goal and how much has been already lost!! AWESOME GUYS!

    It is the diet from the show Celebrity fit club. It has 3 phases. The 1st phase is a detox stage which lasts 9 days. It consists of eating vegetables and fruits and water.
