    Hello, I am a newbie as well with 150 pounds to lose! I hope this journey leads you to good health and happiness! Feel free to add me :happy:
  • Hey peeps. I'm down 63, I have 36 to go to put me at the highest healthy range of BMI. So I consider myself a 100+ because I wanna lose a tad over. It doesn't come easy, it doesn't happen fast. But it CAN and WILL happen. YOU are the only one who chooses whether or not it DOES happen. I recommend reading Overeaters Anonymous book, I forget the exact title. I also recommend Weigh Down Diet, it's a Christian-based book about eating within the realms of true hunger and satisfaction, and anything beyond that is a spiritual issue. The OA book is about acknowledging that we have a problem, that we need a Higher Power, that we have harmed ourselves & others through our choices and actions. For those of us with 100+ lbs, it's so not about the food. We have to acknowledge the demons within us, no matter how difficult. For me, it's meant the end of my marriage. It's been painful, but acknowledging the issues that caused me to make the choices that led me to 258lbs has been freeing.

    It's so not about the food. The food is the symptom.

    You CAN do this, each & every one of you. And I can and will too.

    I started at the beginning of May and want to lose between 80 and 90 lbs. I've lost 10 so far and I think getting more active will help me get there.

    My friend I have lost 80 and you will get there, eat well exercise... You will be surprised how proud of yourself you will be if you just set small goals, be that in exercise or weight loss it's all about proving to yourself how in control you are. You can do this, if I can you can, I'm proud of you for what it is worth, keep on it.
  • I've got another 75ish pounds to go! Add me if you'd like!

    I have 167 more pounds to lose to get to my goal weight. I'm trying to lose 200 pounds overall, since it's a nice, round number, and it will put me even lower than my high school weight (which is my goal weight). :) Feel free to add me!

    Hi I have just started myself. i have lost 10lbs that leaves another 100 or so pounds to go.
  • I'm new here to. I started a few weeks ago. I am down a total of 19 lbs even though my ticker on here says 11. I started with another, inferior app, before I found out about MFP. I love it so far and make lots of homemade meals so the being able to input my own recipes has been wonderful. It's so much easier to accurately track my calories. I have over 100 lbs more to lose but trying to do it the right way this time and take it slow and steady. Please add me because I love having the positive support and also seeing others with the same amount to lose as me staying positive.

    I started a couple of months ago and was 100 lb over my previously "happy" weight. I'm on my way down now, very slowly! I'm aiming to get fit, which is something I haven't been in a long, long time and I'm hoping that the weight loss will help me get there. Please feel free to add me!
