Anyone starting from around 230-250?

xmandadollx

A few years ago I weighed 270 pounds. Last summer I weighed 228 pounds. I am currently at 210 pounds and really looking forward to weighing under 200 pounds. We can all do this!!!

i just started yesterday and i am 5Ft 10 in and am starting at 250lbs too. my girlfriend has been on here a few months and lost 21 lbs and her hubby has lost like 11 i think so this is something i think we can all do. im hoping this helps me as well as others to be accountable for my exercise and the crap i put in my mouth

Hi
I am actually only 5.4 feet and weigh 244 so I have a long way to go but I will take it a day at a time

Me! Me!

Wow, I sound excited about it.

I'm 5'3" and started at 246. My end goal is 111 pounds from there, at 135.

You're taller (most people are) and so I think the bottom of of your range is about there.

I'm friend-able!

I'm 5'6" and in Dec I got on the scale for the first time in years I weighed 223. Needless to say I cried in the middle of the drs office. I know I have topped 250 but luckily I didn't own a scale at that point. lol. A friend suggested I try this site so I joined a few days ago, I was 218 then. I am looking forward to dropping back down under 150 truthfully my goal is to see 105 again.

Being that this is my first forum post I have no friends here and wouldn't mind having a few so add me if you like - I haven't figured out how to do it yet.

Yup, I'm with you. It's been slow going but I'm keeping with it. Lost 6 pounds so far. A lot more to go. We can do it!

I started at 235 last January (I'm 5'6" tall), and now I'm at 168, so you're NOT the only one. And I know I've seen people with way more than that to lose. I'm always looking for new friends, so feel free to add me!

i started on january 20th at around 260, and as of today i'm 249. my first goal is really to get back to the weight i was at before i took birth control pills. That's 217 lbs. That, plus losing my medical insurance (and with it, treatment for my hashimoto's thyroiditis) really hit me hard.

oh, and i am i'm 5'7

Hiya I'm 258 lb and 5ft 7in tall I need to lose at least 90lb.... On the 27th May my four beautiful grandchildren are getting Christened and there will be family there that I haven't seen for ages...... so I need to pull out all the stop's for that! I have had some dreadful time's where I've been doing well fallen off the waggon and had to start again..... In fact last week was one of those time's! But I have pulled myself together and carried on. It's flipping hard and I won't pretend otherwise..... but you can do this... WE can do this!!!! We could aim toward's a 10lb goal and then another 10lb goal and so on..... The girl's on this site who I have made friend's with suggested it, and what a great idea Let me know what you think? Anyone intrested? The more the merrier

Oh dear, I'm starting at 287 and I just got on here. I was 310 before. And I'm only 5"3 (and a half) and small-boned!! You are NEVER alone!!! There will always be someone who has to lose more, someone who has to lose less, but maybe with a disability, someone that feels just like you and just like me who weighs 135lbs..LOL We are so much alike in our differences. Go figure!

Many of us on here starting from above 200, I started at 223, I'm only 5'4'', That was January 24th. I am now hoovering around 200, and have been amazed at the dropped inches. If you need a friend add me.
