Rep Power: 357932 | | | break that 80 pounds into smaller more manageable goals... like maybe 10 pound increments... and it won't seem as daunting...
you'll get plenty of support and encouragement here...
welcome and good luck!!!

Rep Power: 53502 | | I can't agree more. 80 pounds is a lot to lose, but not impossible. You're doing it at the right time and with the right attitude. Shoot for 20 pounds and when you accomplish that shoot for another 20  |

Rep Power: 9 | | | Hi, losingit4good! Welcome to the forum! I know what you mean by being daunted with such an uphill battle. I have one, too, as you can tell from my ticker below. But just as maleficent said, I'm breaking mine up into smaller parts, and I'll be celebrating each little milestone. I know you will too. Good luck!

Hi! Don't worry about the big number. It doesn't matter if you need to lose 10 pounds or 100 pounds, they all come off 1 pound at a time! You can do it. Just make reasonable goals and changes you can live with. Aim for about 2 pounds a week, and that 80 pounds will be gone in less than a year!
