looking for same weight and weight loss goal friends~!

I would really like to add some friends that are around the same size as myself. I'm 40 years old and I am 5'6" and weigh almost 260...I'm finding this very difficult. I walk every night and I stay under my calorie goals as much as possible but the weight doesn't want to come off and I get discouraged. I would love friends in the same boat...beginning stages but that are truly committed. Thanks, Jen

    I know this may sound crazy but you need to meet your calorie goals if you want the weight to come off. Staying under only makes your body think it's starving and will conserve.

    I have 20kg to lose - not sure what that is in pounds.... but am always happy for more friends to support! Add me if you like....
  • Hi! Just found this site today. Joined WW on 8/31...lost 3.8 lbs in first week. I'm 5'3, 178.2 as of 5 days ago and ultimately want to be 130. First goal is -165-168 lbs. by Oct. 26 (I have a black tie Gala to attend!) Second goal is 150-155lbs. by Xmas (as a gift to myself!) Started "Group Groove/Group Active" classes at my gym..which turn my body into gello, but I'm committed. Best incentive is that Hubby has said I get a trip to Hawaii if I make it to 50 lbs lost!!! Anyone else have similar goals? Would love an "online workout buddy" as we recently moved and I don't know anyone in our town.
