    I'm 29 and 5'4". My starting weight was 284 but I'm at 235-ish now. My goal is 150 (the smallest I've been in my adult life is 172) and I'll reevaluate from there. I'd love someone to help keep me in check and vise versa. In the past I've always tried to keep my weight loss secretive in fear that someone would hear how much I weigh, but I'm putting it all out on the table this time so that I never have to kick the weight off again. Anyone is free to add me if interested :)

    I'm 5' 8" and would like to get down to 150. Started at 200. Feel free to add me and to anyone else who would like to add me.. :flowerforyou:

    And to you taller gals..(and guys)... I have also been told I "carry my weight well" but so did my mom and she is now close to 400 and having trouble walking. I never thought of her as big until she hit about 270. I don't want my weight to get away from me because I can hide it with my height. :wink:

    Added!

    I have at least 50 to lose (but I have to admit, at this point I'd be momentarily happy with 10) :P

    Hello :) I am 4'11 and am trying to get to the 120's I still have a long way to go. I am about to be 32 next month. I lost this amount a few years ago and had no problem but I am really struggling this time around. I do pretty good during the week, weekends are my battle. My husband does not diet or try to eat healthy so having his support is really hard. I just started at Planet Fitness and am trying to make myself go at least 3-4 times a week. I work 40+ hrs so that is sometimes hard juggling all together. I am really picky too so I tend to eat the same all the time. Would love some friends to help support and support me on my journey and theirs :)

    I am 5' 7" and have gone through two weight loss surgeries in which I lost around 60 pounds. I have about 70 more to lose and would love the encouragement and accountability.

    I am working with yet another doctor that has me on 1200 calories a day. This is my 6th day and I've lost 8 pounds so far. Still a long way to go.

    Thanks!

    I'm 5'8 and have 50 to lose as well. I'd like to see someone elses food diary to get ideas and also am in dire need of support. I've been on WW and just haven't been feelin' it lately. I lost 100lbs with WW, but put 50 back on and haven't been able to really committ lately. It seems as though I'm just letting them take my money over and over. And I'm getting absolutely nothing from the meetings anymore. I'm just over it.

    I really going to give MFP 100% effort. How do I share my diary, and view others? Anyone else go thru the WW stuff?

    I'm 5'3 and currently weigh 200lbs. My goal is to get down to 125 and then build up muscle so I'd be sitting around 150 or so. I am finally committing to this and I need people to hold me accountable. I promise I will do the same in return. Good luck to everyone on their journey, I'll see you all at the finish line :)
