Hi! I am 34 years old. I Live in a suburb of Philadelphia, PA. I am looking to lose a significant (70+ lbs) amount of weight. I am looking for people who are similar that I can befriend and we can keep each other accountable and on track, share what's working for you and what's not working, and Just have a good time! I have been one of those back a forth dieters, but this time I am trying to follow through. Hope to talk to some of you soon!

I am on Day 2. I have met my caloric goals both days! Yay me!
I also worked out both days! Yesterday I did 45 Minutes on the eliptical and burned 500 claories, today i did abs, 30 minute circuit, and 20 mintes on the eliptical. I belong to Planet Fitness.
My boyfriend and my frind both go as well, but they are like 135lbs so i dont think they understand how hard it is for me to do the same things they do. Its nice to have friend that are in the same boat as I am. So what are all of you doing as far ast eating and exercising?0 -

Hello and welcome! I need to lose about 60 lbs - I have tried before too, but this is the real deal this time!
My husband is supportive but he weighs 135 so he doesn't get how hard it can be.
I would love to be friends - feel free to add me. I try to be on MFP multiples times per day.0 -
Everyone feel free to add me )))0

Anyone feel free to add me tomorrow is my 515 straight day of logging into mfp and in that time I've lost 77 pounds. My hubby has lost 180 and my son has lost 125. Me and hubby still have more to lose. I'm 42.0

So glad to see so many in the same situation! Makes it a little easier to keep at it to know your not alone.
Amy I have never tried Kayaking, but it sounds like fun!
Clover - do you get discouraged having a slimmer husband? Cause I do sometimes, although my boyfriend say he loves me just how I am, I still feel self conscious with him.0 -
Feel free to add me! I have only been on MFP for a few weeks and am hoping to lose 80+ pounds. I know it is going to be difficult so I am always open to building a supportive friend network.0

Good Morning Ladies! Happy Friday! What's on the adgenda for this weekend? Me? I'll be celebrating my birthday! Sabotage for healthy eating and exercise...ugh, but thankfully it only happens once a year...right? I hope all of you have a happy healthy weekend! I'm gonna try to check in...0

Hi all, I'm 36 years old an American Ex-pat living in Winchester, England. I actually signed up for MFP about a month ago, was really good for about a week but without any accountability I just sort of went off track! I'd love to help to support and motivate y'all and hope for the same in return. Someone needs to keep me in line though!!
I've got about 70 pounds that I want to shake, and so far I've been eating smaller portions (I'm a pretty healthy eater anyway, just too much of a good thing) and have been doing Turbo Jam, Yogalates, DVDs and hiking and cycling around my local area. I tried Jillian Michael's Biggest Winner DVDs and they're just too much for me at this stage!! I have some work to do before she'll be able to kick my *kitten* into shape! :-)
I'm a teacher so I'm off for the summer and I want to do the 'daily double' for the next few weeks where I'm strength training or cardio twice a day 6 days a week. Well, that's my story. I hope to hear from some more of you soon!

I want to lose 50lbs. I am Z-fitness Instructor so I have a committment that I must keep. I teach 6 classes/week that does not include special events I may participate in. I was at a plateau to I have committed to jogging and walking 7 days/week at least 4-6 miles a day. I know this will help me reach my goal.
I have a short term goal from July 5, 2012 through August 6, 2012. Then August 6, 2012 through September 3, 2012. I have found setting short term goals makes it more realistic to lost the 50lbs.
I want longevitiy in my life, so I am not only doing this for me, I am doing this for my loved ones around me so I can be around for a long time.0 -
Would also like to lose significant weight... somewhere in the neighborhood of 80lbs. Would like to chat with those also in my situation . I am a mom of 2 and have a business with my husband and work out of the home. We are super busy 9 months out of the year and it can be very difficult to stay on track. Am hoping some encouragement and accountabililty from others will help. Thanks
