I am looking for volunteers to be "featured" so to speak on my weight loss blog. I'm looking preferably for those that have lost at least 50 pounds and have a story they want to tell (a few good pictures would be awesome too)

Just for reference, I make ZERO money from my blog... I am just looking to keep motivational material coming for anyone that reads my blog!

    I started at 208 and am now 148, that's 60lbs down using MFP. It's beena bout a year and a half to get to this level but I'm not rushing it or trying to get there as fast as some. I know that for me to be successful, it needs to come off slowly so that I can adapt and keep it off.

    I would speak for your blog if you'd like, just send me a message

    This is awesome people! I appreciate it a lot. My back story: Parents did drugs when I was younger and being the oldest of 4 I took a lot of responsibility on helping take care of my siblings. When I was down/anxious/whatever I turned to food. In high school I played football... was pretty good but not quite fast enough to go anywhere with it.

    High school ended and so did football, but the eating habits from the parents being addicts didn't (even though the parents miraculously came back from the meth addiction)

    Here we sit a little over 6 years later and I am busting my *kitten* to become the person I need to be for me. I figure if I can motivate and or embarrass someone into getting healthier on the way then I'm damn sure going to do it!
