    35 y/o here. 6'1" and currently 373 lbs. I was 390.4 lbs. when I began about 3-4 weeks ago.
    I'm 85% optimism and 15% sarcasm. And I sometimes feel like - if it weren't for all this silly weight - I'd be a pretty awesome personal trainer. I have lots of knowledge and have been learning so much since joining this wonderful community, so please feel free to ask me anything anytime!

    Good luck! I remember when I was in your shoes! I weighed almost 370 pounds and I'm 5'1! I'm 39 now...I've lost around 130 pounds. Stick to it! You can do this!
  • Umm. Well I'm 24. . . 5'7 and at 340 I was 347 when I started a couple weeks ago. I'm mostly an introvert. And I've fought weight all my life. I'm extremely sarcastic.. And suffer from extreme depression. Every day is battle. I can't believe I'm responding to this. But we'll. I know what it's like to think you're alone in this. And seeing your post helped me. As did the responses . good luck. Feel free to add me or ask questions.

    Feel free to add me! I started at 310 around mid June & I am currently 289. I love to give and receive support & motivation. It think this journey is a little more challenging for those of us with more to lose but we can do this!! No doubt! :)
