in Introduce Yourself
Any ladies in the same boat? Looking for more MFP friends :).
I'm 5'10"... sw-331, cw-300, gw-160
For as long as I can remember I have always been bigger than all the other kids my age. When I was old enough to care about weight, I was already over 200lbs. This is a life style change for me but don't have a ton of support from family.... oh such temptation!

    Awesome! that 31 pounds is a great start and should fuel more motivation. Each pound is excellent motivation and it only builds greater as more pounds are lost. How do you feel Physically, other than lighter?

    Way to go! I have also lost 31 pounds. I have 37 to go to get to my goal. Of course, once I get there I may decide to lose more. I'm just happy to finally be below 220! I haven't been under 220 in the last 20 years. I finally made it to 217! Keep up the good work. You can do this!
    I live in Fort Worth, TX by the way. I am doing the Medi Weight Loss program.

    You can do this! ;)
    It's amazing that you decided to step up and take control over your life and body. Keep going. It will pay off in ways you couldn't imagine before. Support from family and friends is amazing - but remember: you're doing this for yourself, not to please anyone else!

    Good luck!

    Hi :) Nice to meet you. I started my journey about 3 years ago and needed to lose 300 lbs I have about 85 left to go or so :) By your stats it seems like you are already doing the right things. This site is a great motivator for me and helps me stay on track and the people here are so supportive. Best of luck on your journey and feel free to add me if you would like to support each other :)
