    There are many of us on here that are or were over 300 plus. I thought I was alone for some strange reason. But since joinging this site, all the support and encouraging words makes a world of difference. I have my days as one person said on here its ok to have a bad day just dont make it a couple of days or a week then you will end up back where you were.

    I was @ 337 lbs on 5/1/2011 by 4/1/2012 I was at 178. First 7 months were the bulk of the loss (140lbs) then I started slowing it down (eating more).

    You can do it!

    Was at 444, at my heaviest. Had lapband surgery, lost over 125 lbs. Been 3 yrs., I just started putting on a few pounds and decided I needed to do something, before everything went haywire and I gained it back. Just started this last week, just need to make sure that you enter everything daily. I know that I will be coming here to talk to others, get advise and my thoughts as well. Am at 322 now, want to get down to 260 for my wedding in January! :smile:

    Me! My highest weight was in March 2009 at 465 lbs. I'm pretty sure it was higher than that since then, but I never went back to the dr to be weighed. I started my official weight loss journey with my current doctors March 2011 at 406 lbs. I had gastric bypass surgery on December 13, 2011. I weighed 366 lbs the day of my surgery. Today I weigh 259 lbs. I am so glad that I had the surgery. It was a life saver - literally - in my case. I would probably not be here to see my grandkids running and playing or watch my son get married or my other son graduate high school. Best decision I have made for my health was to have the surgery.

    306 is what I admit too, when I got on the scale....it may have been more at some point <shrug> But when I got on the scale in May of 2011, that is the number that looked back at me!

    Started at 380, now at 353ish - don't know if I'll make it to 200-ville, but I'm going for fat%, not weight.

    Right after I had my son I peaked at 345 pounds, I quickly lost the 30 pounds of baby weight and started a healthier life style starting at 315lbs. I am currently 265, it feels so great to have all this weight off but I still have a long way to go! Feel free to add me for support!

    I started my journey this month.
    I started at 330 and I am now at 317, so quite a long ways to go but I'm not discouraged.
    It's not too difficult to stay under my calorie goals as long as I don't drink my calories.
