MY 100 POUND JOURNEY
This challenge is for those who need to lose 100+ lbs. My name is Lisa. I’m 5’5” and weigh 300 lbs. My goal weight is 200 lbs (size 16). I’ll still be heavy, but I’m fine with that. I have no desire to be thin. I was always sick when I was thin (135). I’m much healthier with some meat on my bones (and fat smoothes out the…

58, overweight, 25 lbs to go
Hi, I'm Kate. I'm 58, 59 next month. When I got on the scale at the dr's, I was (finally) disgusted. I looked in the mirror later that evening, and saw a big fat glob. I'm 5'5", with what I consider a curious (to me) body structure. I have a very short torso-low rise jeans come up to my belly button; 36" inseam; my lowest…

How do you begin, and continue full speed without ‘giving up’?
I want to hear your ways. I have been unmotivated after taking off 3 months with a broken hand, and I just can’t seem to stimulate the motivation within to get back into a routine. I even work at a gym, but that doesn’t even clue me in to get moving.

❓❓❓How have I maintained my 110 lb weight loss over 5 years? ❓❓
From 288 lbs to 178 lbs for over 5 years!! I do go up and down within a general 7 lb range, but how did I lose in the first place? Was it EASY? NO WAY was it easy. At that time, I couldn't walk much, but I could still lose!! I am not a healthy eater (Way better than I was though!) and I flatly refused to make any drastic…
