I'm 210 today! Started at 254 in January. Feel free to add me.

On January 1st of this year, I could have written your post! In fact, I did, in a journal. I felt hopeless and helpless. I had tried and failed so many times, losing all motivation and self control after a month or two, usually as soon as I started telling people I was trying to lose weight. So this time around, I started…

I will be 40 this summer and started this year with the goal to lose 50 lbs by my birthday. I'm already well on my way, down 22 so far! You got this!

I'm Amy and from Illinois. I'm 39 and also have about 80 pounds to lose. My diary is open to friends, feel free to add me!

I have 80-100 pounds to lose. Add me, we can motivate each other along the way!

I would love to join your group! My name is Amy, and I will be 40 in July. I started on here the beginning of January with a goal lose 50lbs pounds by my 40th birthday!

I'd love to join the group too! I have about 80 pounds to lose, but my first goal is to lose 50lbs pounds by my 40th birthday in July. After my first month, I'm down about 16 pounds! Off to a good start!!

Add me!

I'm 5'9" and started the beginning of January at 254. I've already lost almost 14 pounds! I also need to lose about 100 pounds but am starting with 50. My initial goal is to lose that first 50 pounds by my 40th birthday in the middle of July. Feel free to add me!

Hi Christine. My name is Amy and our stories sound pretty similar. I have a total of about 90 pounds to lose, but my smaller goal is to lose 50lbs by my 40th birthday in July. This is my 4th week on MFP and I have lost close to 14 pounds. Like you, I lack motivation to be active. So far exercise has been sporadic, but…

Add me! I have about 80 to lose, but my smaller goal is to lose 50 by my 40th birthday in July. I've lost 11 so far-39 to go for my first goal!

My general plan is eat less, move more. More specifically, I have been tracking all food and am trying to make healthier choices. MFP says 1650 daily calories for 1-2 pounds of weight loss per week. I have also started c25k this week. Also, I am 5'9", starting weight 254.4, current weight 243.

You can do this! I need to believe that for myself too. I'm in almost exactly the same boat. I have about 80 pounds to lose. The first 2 weeks, I lost 11 pounds and now in week 3-NOTHING!! I know it's frustrating, but instead of giving up like I normally would, I'm choosing to push on and I know we can see this through to…
