    Really tired of this extra weight I have been carrying for the past 4 years. Ready to get back in a shape other than round. Starting at 199, goal is 149. Please send me friend requests to help keep me encouraged. My husband is the worst person to be around when trying to lose weight. He constantly sabotage my efforts while telling me he likes me the way that I am. Unlike him, i am not 6'4 and with a super fast metabolism. I love him and want to duct tape his mouth all at the same time. Wait, maybe I should duct tape my mouth instead?!

    Hi! If you are still looking for friends, I started 3 months ago at 208. I'm 176 as of today. I'm heading for 140.

    Wow that's great to hear! I started then stopped and now I'm back with it again. Looking for 50-60 lb loss but just these past weeks have really been educational realizing how much calories I was eating. What an eye opener. Haven't added consistent exercise yet but need to.

    I just got started on the first and I'm looking for a few more fitness pals with similar weight loss goals.
    My start weight is 209 & goal weight is 149 lbs.

    Thanks!!!

    Me too! Looks like a lot are in the same boat. I wasn't aware of this community part of the MFP. It's cool to help support each other's goals.

    Hi all, names Carmen, and I am not new to MFP, but I always give up. My current weight is 235, which is the biggist I have ever been. Trying to get some friends on here so we can motivate each other. I'm currently doing the herballife shakes and I lost 5 pounds last week. My body looses weight pretty decently, but I also gain it back with much more speed. I can gain a pound just by looking at food, lol. Hopefully this time around will be different. Wishing you all much success, and please feel free to add me. I would add you but I've never learned how to do it :/

    Hello!! I started 72 days ago at 236. I am now at 206. My goal is to be about 145-150. I've been using MFP for a while but just in the last few days starting talking to others that share the same goals. Anyone can feel free to add me as a friend.

    Hi. Please add me as a link, we all need support & encouragement & kick in the butt once in awhile;) Was 218 when I started, currently at 210.8. My immediate goal is to break 200 (it has been years since I was in the 190s), then go in 5 or 10 lb increments. I think I will cry with happiness when I can go clothes shopping & buy what I want as opposed to what will fit me. So enough is enough, I am determined to be healthier & feel happier this year. My overall goal would be between 150-160. But, it's been so long since I've been even close to that weight, that any progress towards it will make me more & more determined. Love this app & good luck to all.
