    Hi there! I understand a long journey, lol. My HW was 402, LW was 178. Currently sitting around 290 and hoping to lose about 90 now, that's where I was most comfortable. 😊 You can do it!
    Feel free to add me to chat or anything.

    I'm in Canada btw. 😇

    Hi all :)
    I have come back (again and again) and now back here once more :blush:
    I would preferably like to lose around 80/85lbs (6st or 38kg)
    My HW was 265lb and I am currently down to 257lb would love to get to around 180lbs.
    I have just bought a new Fitbit to try and motivate me to move more but my current mental health would much prefer me to stay put.
    I wouldn't mind having a few people along this journey with me :)
    I am in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK :)

    Hi! I have lost around 140-145 lbs and have 80 to go. I am in the US and would be happy to hear from you. Best of luck. For me, tracking has been really important - even tracking the next morning when I have had a late night binge - not to punish myself but to acknowledge what I have done and the “price” so to speak.

    Hey, I was 320lbs at the start of the year. I’ve lost just under 7 stone so far. I know how hard it is! Good luck you can do this :)

    Thanks for sharing you story. Mine is on my profile and on the introduce myself thread. I have about 200 pounds to lose and am on a strict routine to get there. If you’re interested, friend me. We could use all the support we can get!

    Hi, just joined today . Haven't gone premium yet though.
    I have 100+ to lose and if I'm really honest its probably closer to 200. I'm at the stage now that I fear if I don't do something now I won't have another chance.

    I'm only learning how to navigate on here so apologies in advance if I've posted on the wrong thread.

    Good luck to you , me and everyone else x

    I'm returning a 2nd time on here. My first try I lost 45lbs. This time started at 332 now at 319.
    Would like to be 250-280lbs. I need to be around 250 to have knee surgery.
    Have recent rotator cuff tear. So can barely lift R arm. I'm a diabetic, and have osteoarthritis.
    Tried friends last time but they weren't very helpful. Would like to try again. Friend me and we will compare and help each other.

    Hey everyone I'm new here! Great to see so much support I have finally made the decision to work on my health after a not so great doctor visit. Looking to connect with others and stay motivated!
