Weighing in at 285.6lbs at 5’2 and 22 years old, I need to make some major lifestyle changes. I am not new to this weight loss journey as I have lost 98lbs in the past, going from 272lbs to 175lbs. Unfortunately that was back in 2015-2016. Since 2017 I have been gaining the weight back consistently, mainly due to emotional eating...I suffer with depression and anxiety, however my mental health has improved drastically. (No meds just a lot of work) I now feel that I am ready to make this change. I am looking for someone who is willing to go through this process with me, and share the responsibility of being one another’s cheer leader whenever needed. Would also be cool to make a long term weightloss friend in the process. Let’s have fun and lose this weight together! Shoot me a message, age and gender does not matter as long as you are committed :)

    I’m here for friends that would help me along. I started one month ago today and have lost 13.5 pounds so far. Got really depressed yesterday and binged. I started at 170 and want to get down to 119. At 5 feet tall it’s a good weight for me.

    Hello, I think I could use some support now that I'm over 50, it is so hard to keep the weight off. I'm not new to MFP, I did really good back in 2014-2017 staying between 170-174 using MFP. Now I'm 192lbs, 5'3 and about to turn 54. Congrats to you all for posting, that's a start. Congrats to those that have lost weight and those that WILL lose weight, including me. I would like to lose 20lbs asap, but i know it's going to take some time. I would love to be a member to this group🙂

    I’m 27, 5’2”, 246 lbs. I had my first and only child in 2018. I was almost 300 lbs. I’m still far away from my goal. My main goal is improving my health for the sake of my daughter. I’m a stay at home mom, so I don’t have many friends. I definitely need a friend to help stay accountable and motivated. We could share recipes and exercise routines.
