    Hola! Just turned 35 less than a month ago. Have been obese pretty much my entire life! I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure when I was 19-20 years old. About 6 months ago I weighed in about umm 270 something lbs? (Bare with me, I am sucky at this US standard system), I also became insulin dependent seeing as my eating habits were utter *kitten*. I got the gastric sleeve (a weight loss surgery),. I am at 205/206 as we speak. Still have 65 lbs more to go! Feel free to add me (PS. My food diary is unlocked) xoxox

    Hey there, everyone! I’m 30 and looking to lose some sizes and gain some muscle. I’ve been trying to implement healthier choices and watching my portions - which portions are always a struggle for me, but I’m getting better. I’m new to the community portion of the app and would love some friends to interact with.

    hi all,

    i'm 25 and back on here for the THIRD frickin' time, but this time it feels like i'm making some lifestyle changes rather than crash-diet. i've always been overweight and suffer from depression and i'm willing to settle for being fit and depressed, because at least my suffering will look cuter.

    first short-term goal is to lose 40 lbs before my friend's wedding, and i'm 10 lbs down! looking for people to motivate me and hold me accountable.

    Hi everyone! My name is Taylor and I am 21. I've gained 80lbs in the last year and a half since I started a job banking which puts me at just over 200lbs. The wakeup call came when I went to my Dr and discovered that I was in fact *officially* 50lbs overweight. I'm trying hard to stay motivated and am lucky to have my boyfriend by my side to encourage me and partake in everything I try but we have a bit of a problem sticking to it. Can't wait to hear all of your success stories and share my own eventually!!

    Hey everyone!
    I’m 25 and I’ve been using MFP since January, and it’s been so helpful for me, it makes me realize how important is choosing the right food to achieve your goals. I’m struggling with cravings (chocolate specially) so If someone else has the same problems we can support each other!
    Just keep going!!

    Looking for more college students so we can help each other stay motivated through the stressful time that is college! I’m about to turn 21 and have never been happy with my weight. I’m trying to lose 30 but starting with 10. Diabetes runs in my family and I am already pre diabetic so I’ve started to change my lifestyle. I love encouraging others and helping them any way I can!

    Hey! I'm 26 but at college again, and off to uni in September (grades permitting!) :smiley:

    I had an injury that kept me off my feets for a while and I still can't do much fun, but can do enough that I can use the gym + go swim/cycle again. Being sedentary for a while has put me at the low end of healthy, so want to lose some BF and get fit(ish) again :lol: More friends are always good, so thought I'd post here!
