Found this on the last page .... though it needed to be brought to the top !   Lord 100 lbs ... seems like forever to reach :(

 100 pounds is ALOT and I started my journey 14 months ago.  Been on alli about 11 months but I was on a low fat--low calorie diet a few months before that obviously.  Well, I'm down about 80 pounds.  I still have I'd say a minimum of about 55 or so to go.  Don't have a goal weight--will know when I get there.  Time goes by so dang fast as we all know.  It sure doesn't seem like 14 months ago that I started this and the changes are remarkable in a short year.  I know in another year I hopefully will be where I want to be.  My suggestion is take it one day at a time and don't think about the time.  Actually I have faced the fact that I can never eat like I used to period.  If I do I'll gain it all back and this time is it.  Its getting too dang hard getting it off.  You all can do it!!!

goal weight--not sure 150 or less I "think"

 Yeah, tell me about it.  I'm a member of this group and I just can't look at it as "I have to lose over 100 lbs" or I'd just get so discouraged.  I'll make it, but I just have to focus on mini goals for now.

I'm a restarter to Alli.  I lost 50 lbs before Christmas and just couldn't get back into the plan after the holidays.  I've been overweight most of my life.  It is now time to get back on the program.  I need to be in a group that will keep me motivated!!!  I have about 150 to 160 lbs to lose.  I feel motivated by everyone's comments and stories and am ready for the change.   Congrats to everyone on their success!!!

How long did it take you to loose the 50lbs on Alli?  I'm a 100+er as well.  Right now I'm sitting at approx. 267lbs.  I'd love to loose about 60-80lbs by the holidays.  My long term goal is to be a size 8-10.  Right now I'm a 20-22 depending...however, I'm wearing 18s right now.  Go me!  I really dont have a weight I'd like to reach but I'm guessing 140 is about an 8 or 10 for me...so that would be about a 120lbs loss.  Yikes...I think of a number that large and think..."OK, direct me to the nearest chocolate cake!"  hahaha!  Totally kidding... maybe.  :)

I'm a BBW through and through (big beautiful woman) - well big and woman anyway !!!   My boss had surgery a few months back and she's losing her weight, her mom is taking in her clothes and she's just looking good - me on the other hand, it's going off so slowly, I can't tell :(  :(

 I belong in this group too. I've been "living the lifestyle" sine January and thankfully have put a huge dent in what I need to lose. I have about 37 more to go to reach my goal of 100 pounds gone. It's been a long hard road but it sure feels good to know that there is an end in sight.

 Chin up! I know how you feel but just wait and see.  You'll turn around and look in the mirror one day and you'll think Wow! Is that really me?  It will pay off.  You'll see.
