Does anyone else have 150 Lbs or more to lose like me?

Just wondering who is out there who has as much to lose as I do.

Not quite as much, but I still have over 70 lbs to lose. I actually COULD lose more, but I'm trying to set my goal weight realistically.

Started with 150 to lose, currently with 125 left to go.

geniuswaitress........wow your face looks thin if that's you in the picture. Doesn't look like you need to lose that much but i'm just looking at your face. Looks like you are losing and doing great. Congrats!

jdbcmt.......oh doesn't that feel nice to be able to type 125? wow I can't wait until mine starts going down too. Have you lost your weight being on here and how long did it take to lose that 25 lbs?

I've still got 147 to goal, But I have already lost 200+. 

Stick to the plan here at CC.  it can be done. 

Feel free to check my profile, my journals, or drop me a pm. 

Always glad to help.

I have technically 160 lbs to lose since my start weight of 345 to be at ideal weight for my height, im 120 done so far, like duke said stick to the plan and you can't go wrong.

Right on Duke and Syntitan ...............a big thumbs up!

I am confident that CC is working for me. I was a bit discouraged to find after the first week I gained 2 lbs. LOL I was like wtf? So maybe I was retaining sodium or somthing. I dunno.......but I weigh this coming Wed and am excited to see what the scale says. I started Oct 25th so hopefully have lost something by now.

Keep up the good work fellas your doing great

 

And gals!

shia: Yes, I've lost all the weight since finding CC and am so thankful I did.  The information available here is invaluable, and the plan/method does work.  I've lost weight dozens of times the wrong way over the years and always gained it all back plus more. I've previously already lost the same 150 I'm now trying to lose . . . AGAIN.  I lost the first 20 in about 8 weeks then stopped.  I've lost another 5 or 6 very slowly, over several weeks (slow crawl) due to various reasons, which I'm hoping to get back on track ASAP, and I'm hoping my doctor appointment in the morning will help out with some of that.  But, yes, it's great to know that I CAN and WILL do it permanently this time, the right way. :-)

Hello shiagirl,

I have around 200 to lose. I can't give exact number until I go to dr on Wednesday(was supposed tomorrow and had to reschedule) and get weighed. I am estimating my weight. I have started to watch what I eat and switch the types of foods I eat and measure servings, but am waiting to speak with the doc about his suggestions/recommendations on calorie intake and exercise before I get a "formal" start.

I have learned so much on this site. It makes me think, "gee what would I look like right NOW if people had told me these things way back when."

But, they didn't and I'm here now and ready to change my life, that is the important thing.

Good luck.

I've had 150 to lose too. Now I have 93 left. It seems to take forever.

I started with 136 to lose, now it's 96 as I've lost 40 pounds.

I have 141 to go and have lost 18 using CC+ so far.  It's great to watch those numbers go down!

I had 160, only 40 or so left. :)

Had 228 to lose, now around 125 to go.

proud Mom.......I really understand what you are saying as I have had simuliar thoughts. I keep hearing over and over in my head people telling me through out the years you will do it when your ready. Is that time now? Gosh I sure hope it is. CC has been a God send for me. It's not always easy but it's much easier then anything i've ever done before.

obabear.......awesome job on your weight loss. Wow

brighteyes......kudo's to you hon that's great

jmk........and you havent even been on CC that long good job!

cstefan....how amazing you are! It's not easy and you did it! Congrats

jstcrzyengh.....love your nic lol and OMG you have lost alot. You are awesome

Everyone is doing great........thank God for CC

I have 150 left to lose still. Ive lost 50 lbs since august. Only been on CC for 2 weeks and Ive lost 17 lbs so far. I love this site its really helping me understand what Im putting into my body everyday. I plan to stick with this until Im healthy, which I never have been in my entire life. The day Im under 300 lbs will be a very good day, lol...

FYI Im male, 21 years young, 6'1, and currenly 355 1/2 lbs...

jacksnacks...You have done great and 50 lbs is alot of weight. Wow 17 lbs in two weeks that's quick. congrats. It really does cause us to eat healthier on here because if you don't lol then you don't get enough to eat. Those fattening foods really are not filling. I hear you on being under 300 , I feel the same about 200...the day i'm 199 is going to be awesome!

Keep up the good work. It's especially hard being so young but you have a long life ahead of you and it will be a healthier longer life if you do this now.

i am 23. 6'3" and weigh 345...

my goal is to be at 300 by my birthday in april...

and then at 230 by end of next year...

i have used calorie count before and it worked great...

but im lazy... so i will need to pull myself together for this!!

lets do this together!!

chaseishot,

You can do this and you CAN get to 300. There are so many success stories on here. You have already done it before on here and you already know the drill, consistency and logging in your food acurately. Water has really helped me not get so hungry.......it really does work.

Are you lazy or are you a busy person? Seems the pic shows you singing and so it seems to me that you are out there doing things.

Do this now before you get older hon......it gets harder because if you continue the way you are you will eventually gain more weight like me. When i was in my twenties and only had 50-60 lbs to lose I thought ehhhhh if I can't stick to a diet no big deal, I will eventually. Well eventually never comes. Even when trying to diet with WW many times I just couldn't seem to stick with it. I'm not sure why but now it's to the point where I have to do this. You don't want to get to that point! I can hardly walk. I'm in alot of pain too. If you can do this now you will be much better off in the long run.

Sorry if this sounds preachy........didn't mean it too. I'm just very concerned about you being young and not allowing this to continue as you get older.

hugs

I have already lost 64 lbs, but I still have almost 150 left to go! It's been slower lately but I know that if I keep going I will get there.. so I am off to the gym now!

denise,

that's awesome! You will get there eventually, keep up the good work!
