I need to lose about 120 lbs. Please add me too.

I would like to join, too. I have had many weight loss attempts with very little success. My weight is getting pretty high and I must do something this time. My doctor wants me to visit a dietician and I would rather not. I hope with the help of you all and MFP that I can take it off without one.

I have 75+ to lose as well. I feel very overwhelmed by the prospect of watching everything I eat for the rest of my life. I think I am obsessive with food. I feel as though I have no discipline in my life, my husband says otherwise that I am disciplined with other things, but it is hard to see that.

I like this, too. I am going to lose 20 lbs in 12 weeks by planning my food, drinking lots of water, and moving throughout the day and walking 3 x's a day.

I am game for 50 sit ups. Yes, I like the new Biggest Loser. I, too was not a fan of Jillian. The middle age group is impressive, I think they are going to win the whole thing, but there are still several more challenges left. Yes, talk about sneaky. Lean Cuisine has a new broccoli cheese dip w/pita. I thought it would be…

I know how frustrated it can be when everyone else is losing, but you. I have so much trouble controlling my food quantity. I am doing better, but there is so much unknown stuff that happens in a normal day that I feel like no matter how hard I try something will happen and I will screw up my weight loss journey. For…

I have just started the program two weeks ago. We have our next meeting this week. Since it is summer, the group only meets every two weeks. I really like this program. In the past, when I tried to lose weight I always failed. I could never even get out of the starting gate, but now I am doing pretty good. I don't know…

Are you still active on this site? I just started First Place 4 Health.

Hi ladies. I am trying to lose weight to increase my odds at getting pregnant, too. I conceived naturally 4 yrs ago, but the baby was born still. She was full term and beautiful. I spent the next two years desperately trying to conceive again and went through infertility treatments. Finally it worked, this baby turned out…

What do you eat if you have to pack a lunch? I really struggle with this. I also struggle with main dish ideas that don't include a noodle or bean. Any suggestions?

I think you are right WhiteViolet. I tried eating several small meals yesterday at work (my most dangerous binging time) and didn't binge once. I couldn't believe it. I rarely make it through a day without either binging or eating something extremely fattening. I don't know why I binge. I use to never eat desserts and now…

I am really new to understanding my eating problems. What I am struggling with is the emotional satisfaction with binging. I know it is bad for me, but I really love to eat and it feels so good. How do you find something to take the place of food?

I am in, too. I really want to lose 30 by Christmas. I know that I have lost a few pounds already. I really want to have baby #2 and I am getting close to 40. I have to do it now or my chances of having another will be zero.

I hope this group is still active. I've never been able to describe to my family why I have so many problems trying to lose weight, until I saw this message board. I've since done some internet research and I really think that this may be my problem. I gorge on food often and I get so angry at myself for doing it. Everyday…
