    I started out at the end of December 2011 at 399.9 so I call it 400. I didn't start trying to lose anything until the February of this year. I was hospitalized on February 20th with blood clots in my lungs and decided that day to change everything and weighed in at 391.8 by their scales. I am now at 332 and taking it a day at a time, sometimes an hour at a time. I haven't had as many problems this time like I have in all my past attempts to get healthy. I guess my mind set is different. I have went from a very very tight 5X-6X in my clothing to a 3X. This site and the friends I have made here have really helped keep my head on straight. If anyone wants to add me as a friend that would be fine. The more friends the better.

    Was in two major accidents and was immobile for along time. Fought my way back, now fighting the weght war in a healthy manner. Was up to nearly 400 when I started eating right and doing low impact. Crossing the 350 mark now since April.. No fads. Add me for support.

    I started @ 344 @ New Years and weighed in at 250.4 on 8/1. I have about 25 lbs to go... You can do it!
  • I started out at 359lbs (could have been more but I wasn't brave enough to weigh myself). Now a year and a bit down the line I'm 75lbs lighter, and I NEVER thought I could do it. Ideally I would like to lose another 75lb or so but I need to up my game again for that to happen. It is hard but the results are worth it, and If I can do it really anyone can :)
  • I started and fell off a few hundred times.. LoL!, But i weighed in @ 330 on 5/23/2012 & as of today (8/4/2012) I'm at 290.... It's a journey & I'm in it to win it...

    I started with a personal trainer at 307 in December 2011. I didn't start managing calories and food until i discovered MFP at the end of January 2012. But at my last weigh-in on 20 July, i was down to 256. I expect i'm down a few more pounds by now, but official weigh in is every 4 weeks.

    I just keep going slowly and surely and you can do it too!

    I started four years ago at 340, and have been hovering around 300 for a couple of years. I got down to 250 in the first year, but got stuck in a yo-yo cycle a few years ago and have just hopped back on the wagon.

    I'm ready to go!

    CONGRATS! Youa re doing well. I also started at about 308 with a combo of weight watchers, exercise and my fitness pal. I am at 91 lbs lost today and I feel like a new person. Good luck you can do it. It is the hardest thing you will ever do but take baby steps.
  • Yes, in 2010 I weigh 310 pounds but when I signed up for (mfp) I was at 297. Im now at 250, have been doing the change of life eating style since. Nov 2011. Exercise everyday and have come to a halt within the past 2mos. I must say that although I did not see the scale going down, I have continued to lose inches. I was in a size 26 when I started I'm now in a size 16 and some 14 depending on the maker. Never the less I'm still proud and moving forward.
