    Hi all
    Not really one for chat rooms but everyone sounds nice so bear with me if I get it all wrong.
    I have over 100 to lose. I started well a couple of months ago and have lost 7lb but have lost interest. The only good thing is that I haven't put it back on.
    Please add me anyone - I really need encouragement. :)

    I have 70 pounds I want to lose.
  • I started with 114lbs to loose ... 10 down so far! I try to be helpful and motivate others. I recently started out a few weeks ago myself so if you're still looking for others to add on your journey feel free to add me. Same goes out to anyone else. It really helps to have MFP friends who help motivate each other.

    Hi
    I am new, and I have over 75lbs to lose. WOW that was hard to write and look at. Maybe this is just the thing I needed. I could use new friends also.
    Good Luck to everyone.

  • Hi, I'm Valerie and so glad to read so many people with the same struggles as I do. I have been fooling myself long enough and have seen success thru my husband who has lost weight using MFP. I need to apply myself and with encouragement and motivation from this group...I'll be fit in no time. I have no friends as this is my first time here but can't wait to "meet" any and everyone. Feel free to add me and check up on me...I'll do the same. Thanks!

    I need to lose 99lbs, my trainer thinks 80lbs but I want to give myself some room. I'm looking for friends in the area or not. I just need motivation, someone that I can just randomly message or email when I am having a bad moment and share my successes with. Add me if you need a friend during this journey! :)

    Sadly, I said the same thing to myself. :/ But the first step is admitting right? Good luck to you!

    My long-term goal: lose ~65 pounds. My short-term goal: lose 23 by my 23rd birthday in August. :)

    Thanks to 4 years of college and a 9-month nightmare of unemployment followed by horrible first job, I gained about 50 pounds. I tried losing weight last year when I trained for my first-ever 5K. I managed to lose 15 pounds and finish the race with a time that I'm still pretty darn proud of, but I badly injured myself right afterward. Now that I've fully recovered and have changed jobs, I'm at a better place in my life than I was a year ago, and I'm ready to get back on the weight loss wagon again.

    I'd love to talk to you. we are about the same age and im trying to lose 50lbs by my 25 birthday!

    I have about 80 to 85 pounds to lose.
    My current weight is 221 with 39 pounds lost.
    So I am about halfway there.

    I have already ran a 5K and have a Warrior Dash in a few days.

    Hey all! I'm new here to MyFitnessPal and wanted to introduce myself. I've got 50lbs to loose to reach my target and I'm so nervous. I've tried all sorts of fad diets, lost some weight then yo-yoed back, so I'm hoping that a community will really help me go from a dieter to a healthy lifestyle-r.

    My current exercise regimen includes 3x/week of yoga and I'm trying to get in 3 days a week of running. My first goal is to lose 5lbs in one month. Let's do this thing!

    Nice to meet you all!
  • Hi -

    I am looking to loose 55 pounds and keep it off. This site was recommended to me. It would be brilliant to have a network of women who check in on a minimum ever 2 days. I just started about 3 weeks ago. I would really appreciate the ability to share confidences with others who have challenges with stress eating and time constraints.
