    Hello!

    I have been associated with muscle building since one year. Had a literally unhealthiest lifestyle, i started with quitting smoking and then embarking on muscle building:-)

    I was lucky to not have drowned in infinite cardio lover advises and went on with cardio plus strength.

    I have seen a lot of changes and i need to go down on fat levels. :-) nice to see people like you.

    Current weight is 264 lbs

    Need to go on 220 lbs for the start :-)

    I'm hoping to start muscle building at some point also. I'm waiting until I go down in weight a bit so I can handle it better. At this point my knees aren't happy with my weight lol

    Hey there! Starting is the hardest part, so give yourself a pat on the back. I have about 125 pounds to lose. I joined this site 2 years ago and lost around 100 pounds in the first year. I then (stupidly) ate my way back to almost the beginning over this past year. It has taken some time, but I am finally fired up to lose it again. This time; however, I'm keeping it off for good! Feel free to add me :)

    I'm in the same boat too! My name is Jason and I'm 39. My starting weight was 329.5 on April 24, 2015. I weighed on May 24, 2015 and I'm down to 309. Definitely looking for friends along the journey. I have been as low as 220 a couple years ago but that's the smallest I've ever been. I have always struggled with my weight, but I'm not quitting this time. Feel free to add me.

    Hey, you can add me. I had knee pain too after I started to work out. I had to slow it down and do mostly walking first and other low-impact stuff, then gradually added other kinds of exercise in. Lost about 13lbs since Christmas!

    Your doing great! You got this!!! I'm trying to lose 40lbs I just had a baby so it's very challenging for me. I started drinking lots of water (at least half my body weight) and eating small meals/snacks to boost my metabolism. Best of luck to u! Xoxo

    I have been a member of this site for a long time, but I fell off the wagon hardcore when I had another baby. :wink: But I'm back, I'm serious, and I'm totally up for being supportive! Sending you a request!
