    I'm close! I'm about 5'3 1/2 ( can't forget the half! lol) and I started at 250 pounds. I'm down to 227 now though! I could always use (and give) some support on this difficult journey! :)

    5' 4" and 237 here!! Down from 255.

    Is there anyone else who had medical complications that helped their weight gain?? or even hinders their progress??

    Snacks are my huge issue right now, last week it was filling breakfast but I seem to have dealt with that and kept it at 200 calories!!

    I can't remember whether I'm 5'3 or 5'4, LOL, so I just usually say 5'4. I currently weigh 228.

    I have Intracranial Hypertension so my body produces too much fluid and puts pressure on my brain! We found out when I almost lost vision in one eye! The chronic headaches, pressure and muscle pain made it really hard to work out and made me super depressed!

    The Meds make me fatigued and when I work out hard I get a nasty migraine that lasts for a few days (the last one was 12 days!!) I am working really hard to do it with diet, walking and aquafit which is really low impact but gives me good cardio and rarely affects my head!

    I'm 5'0" (and a tiny bit), 190, ultimate goal of 115 or so. Anyone of any height can add me, but if anyone happens to actually be somewhat close to the five foot range, we can give each other extra-short-person support. ;)

    It is so inpirational that you are going through so much and still so determin to loose the weight and not let your condition hold you back! Much love!!
