    I would love to be a part of this. I just joined MFP, but I have been working on some lifestyle changes for the last few months. I am 6'3, but my numbers are still way too high for my height.

    I feel that support like this is probably just what we need.

    I didn't think I'd find many people in the same boat as me but it looks like I found my people!
    I am just starting both on MFP as well as my weight loss journey!
    Excited to be here and happy to see people that will understand and relate.

    Hi there,
    I have been logging in myfitnesspal since January, so I'm not a newbie, but this forum stuff is new to me; I am however very interested to see this group! I have been struggling with weight issues for years; so far by logging and improving my fitness level (easy to do since it used to be zero :) ) I have gone from 316 to 258, with 110 or so to go..,.,seems like a long way still, so I look forward to having friends to share the journey with. Thanks for setting up this group!!

    I'm at 231 and I started in May at 246. I want to get down to a ballpark 148. I still have a lot to loose, like 80 pounds. I'm with you on this. We can do it.

    well I have been on this for about a year and I am 63, My top weight was 298 then I got to 260, I am back up to 281 and need to lose the weight. My body hurts from arthritis and its hard to get around with my grandchildren. I had a bad last 8 months with the death of my mother at age 98. She was in good health for her age and still lived alone but her heart gave out. My husband aND I lived at her house for 7 months going through 67 years of memory. Well the comfort food went with it so I am really needing support to get back on track. I am so impressed with the results that I have read on this site. I am back to exercising too.

    Thank you for all the responses! I can't believe there's others who are on the same boat as I am! I'm glad to have found you.

    I decided to make a group, I've wanted to but didn't think there would be others, now that I know that there's people who have similar goals, I did it:
    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/22594-150-to-lose

    Feel free to join, or don't, doesn't matter. I appreciate the responses and those who are interested in mutual support. I will do my best to support each and every one of you that has added me :flowerforyou:

    I'm not brave enough to post my starting and current weights yet, but ultimately, I need to lose about 190 pounds total. So far, I'd lost 75, but gained back about 25, trying to get it back together. So, about 140 left to go! Add me!

    I'm right at the end of my journey, I've lost 166 lbs, I just want to wish you luck and say you really can do it, just take one day at a time and pick yourself up when you fall down, oh and be kind to yourself, firm but kind.
