    You are so not alone. I am 5'3" starting at 250ish. I am trying to loose 60 for now. I just want to be out of the 200s really. It has been a long time since I have felt good in my own skin, so I am ready for a change. I would really like to help keep you motivated as well. Sending you a FR!

    We CAN do this!!!

    Yep, I started at 248 and am now down to 202. I get hung up some weeks but most of all, no one has noticed I lost weigt cause I was so big. Very depressing, but I keep working away. It will come off.

    I weigh more than I ever have, but not for long. Anyone who wants to add me, great, or who wants me to add them. This is so much easier when we don't feel alone in it. :)

    Hello, I'm glad to know that I am not the only one who feels like that. I am 269 right now. I want to loose about 110 pounds. I joined quite a while ago, but I haven't been consistent. So I am looking for support too. Send me a friend request, we can tackle this journey together.

    Hey eyeryone,

    I done this last year and managed to lose over two stone in around 3 1/2 months - unfortunately, a life style change and an illness hit me hard and I have put it all back on, with some interest... I am currently 230lbs and feeling very very low im only 5 foot so you have some idea of how im looking (like a big fat round blimp)... Need some friends to encourage me and help me on my way as I am not sure I can do it again... Please please help!!

    Thanks

    I started 5 weeks ago at 250lbs, and am now at 239

    I'm 43 years old and am 5' 9".

    My main target is to get to 168 which would put me right at the top of the healthy weight range, and then I f I still feel that I can do more, maybe I'll try a bit further. I'm really pleased with the results so far, and am linving the support from this site!

    Looking forward to hearing about your progress :flowerforyou:
