Need to drop half of my body weight. Looking for friends.

So I've gotten to the point where I'm reality show obese. Looking to hopefully get down to half my current body weight (440lb to 220lb) in the next two years. I've been lifting on and off for a year or two now. I enjoy it. If you add me, please don't be offended by profanity. I don't censor myself on my profile.
Would really like to find more people a similar situation as myself, but any supportive and cool people are welcome to add me.

Love the profile pick. It isn't going to be an easy journey, but you sound like a winner already and all you need to do is remember that. You have realistic goals and they are achievable. Be consistent: fill out the food diary on here (even if you are not proud of how you ate that day) because it helps. When I first joined, I was excited for a day or two, then relapsed and gained six more pounds. I'm back now and more motivated then ever. Let me know if you need motivation.
And as for the profanity, in weight loss, you aren't saying "*kitten*" a few times a week, you're not doing it right.0 -
Bump so this'll show up in my feed. OP is one of my favorite people.0

you can add me as well.. I need to go from 289 to 140-150 ish which is about half as well.. I feel what help keeps me motivated are little NSV's that I have planned along the way, like fitting back into an old pair of jeans, cause in the end the number on the scale doesn't matter to me as long as I'm healthy and happy and comfortable in my own skin0

I'm loving all the friend requests. However, let me make something clear. I'm not looking to purchase "the latest detox" or P3456X. So don't message me trying to sell something or promote your product. Thanks.0
