Friends? Motivation?

Well, I'm Savannah. Obviously I am overweight and I am trying to change that. My daughter is the main reason I am starting this weightloss journey. I want her to be healthy and it would be hypocritical of me if I want her to live a healthy lifestyle and I'm not. I'm also doing this for me, but honestly, it's mostly for her.

Anyways, I've "restarted" this journey multiple times because I tend to give up easily. But, I am determined not to give up this time and I am hoping to gain some friends on here that we can share our progress and also give one another motivation when needed.

Right now I am 260 pounds and my goal is 130. I have a long ways to go but I am staying positive and I know I can do this!

Stats:
Height- 5'4
Weight- 260
Age- 22

If you have around the same stats as myself (or even if you don't) feel free to add me. I need all the friends/motivation I can get!

    Welcome to the struggle...and I mean that in a positive way! Feel free to add me. I started at 222, am now 175 and want to get down to 110-120 (no idea really, because I've never been thin).

    Welcome!!! I think you've come to the right place. I am a bit older than you, not close to your height and weight. But I do log daily and try to motivate everyone. Feel free to add me if you want.

    Hi im Becky. Anyone can add me too if you like. I also have 150 to lose and never find again. My current goal is to do this by june 2014 so im here for the long haul. I will hit the floor running. I start in the morning. I think together we can all accomplish what we set out to do. Looking forward to this journey.
