I have to lose about 80 pounds but I'll settle for 50 for now. First thing first is tracking the food/exercise. I am stuck at 215 but was 247 pds for a couple of years. I look forward to meeting new people and getting information about weight loss. I live in Canada (west coast) and plan on losing 3 pounds a month to get to 200 pounds by my 40th birthday. Wish me luck!!!

    Hi - I think you have come to the right place! It really helps to track what you eat and I am sure you will reach your goals! I vacationed in Vancouver BC once and it is absolutely one of the nicest places I have ever been! I loved the ORCA 's statues all over the city! WE have a town north of us that has the same sort of thing only it is squirrells painted all sorts of wild ways! What I loved is that we walked the entire time we were there and say so much! Feel free to add me as a friend if you like I am looking to make some friends here too! Need all the help I can get! LOL

    I just joined last Monday. Have done good so far. I have about 105 pounds to lose to where I will be comfortable...anything I can do beyond that would be great but not a must. I have been overweight all my adult life but was still in good health. Now I am having knee and foot problems, can barely get around some days and feel twice my age at times. I don't want to live the rest of my life like this. I have tried and failed at weight loss before but am determined to do this! Will appreciate any and all help/encouragement!

    Ana, I joined today too (I was the new from Baltimore).

    Good luck to both of us. I want to lose 50 pounds as well. Maybe a little more down the road.

    Wish us both the best.
