250lbs and can use some friend in the same boat

Hi, Im starting at 232 and this is my 1st time on MFP (can't believe I just said that out loud but, the 1st step is admititng it, lol) but feel free to add me, its super important to have a good support system.

I started at 275 and tried counting calories, carbs, exercising my figurative butt off but nothing was working quickly enough for me... I started a juice fast and went for 21 days and lost 40 lbs. I gained 10 of it back, but now I am on another one that I started on Dec. 15th... I have lost another 10lbs. as of today (Dec. 18). I am tracking my nutritional intake so that I can see how much my body is using and how much I really need so that when I am done with this fast, I can go by those numbers instead of the numbers that everybody else feels they have to follow because they are "recommended" It is a lifestyle change though. After the fast is over you have cleansed your body of all of the toxins that you have been carrying around and it makes you able to eat a plant based, non processed diet to stay fit and trim after you loose all of the weight! If anybody wants to join me on this journey, feel free to do so and if you want to learn more go to fatsickandnearlydead.com! I watched the documentary and it changed my life for the better

Feel free to add me! I'm here daily (just hit 105 days) and I have a long, long, LONG way to go lol. But sometimes I forget to put on my mental filter and can get a smidge raunchy. Just fair warning (I really do TRY not to let it happen, but sometimes I don't even realize that it has happened.)

Edit: Anyone can feel free to add me! I love having a full list of peeps to support and get support from. I already have some amazingly awesome motivated and motivating people on my list! Not only do I have a lot to lose, I'm also shifting towards a gluten free diet, so extra bonus kudos if you're looking for getting/giving support in that department!

I was 234 in August, I'm 213 now. I'll be your friend!

I know what you are talking about, ive had success with mfp but I let life get in the way and made excuses and here I am heavier than when I first joined! I need this to work not only for my self but to be a healthy mother for my 3 year old daughter. My little brother who is only 7 started calling me Big mama ya know like on Big Mama's house and I just stopped and thought OMG!!! I do not want to be this person, I am so unhappy and feel so self conscience. I would love to have all the suppost I can get, I plan to give a TON of support too, I think weekly weighin challenges would be awesome, we can and will do this!!! Please feel free to add me!!

I STARTED 250 LBS. YOU CAN ADD ME

276 lbs today....I just started again for the second time. Feel free to add me.

I started out at 235 with weight watchers...about 2 years ago:( I'm now down to 205 but I have a long way to go. I'm determined to make it work this time. Feel free to add me.

I'm over 250 so let's do this!

I too have quite amount of weight to lose!! I am about 255 and need to be at 165. I have FINALLY made up my mind that I HAVE to do this for myself!!! I also realize that the weight did not get up here over night and will not disappear over night. I am hoping however, to be at my goal weight by this time next year!!! So I will be glad to be in a support group with you!!

Hi there... 38 y/o female here. I don't have a defined 'final' goal yet, but it's in the 70-80 lbs range still to lose. Puttering through the last several months I've lost about 30. Feel free to add me!

Hey there. I'm right around 250, and I just started on MFP. Anyone please feel free to add me. I love to motivate people, because it consequently motivates me!

I'm closing in on 250 and still have 100+ to go. Feel free to add me

I am 236lbs 5"9. started out 285lbs - 290 at times five months ago. My goal weight is 180lbs so I am here with you. Because of my height I carry it well. but I still carry it.

My name is Sharon. Im 5'5'' 225 lbs. Im 25. Hoping to stop gaining weight and being fat. Haha. Sometime you just get to a point where you think you should be better to your body and joints and have more energy and breathe better. Me and my boyfriend quit smoking on November 11th, it has be over a month now. We joined the gym in August - he looks better and clothes are looser but I still look the same! I have recently (past 2 weeks) been using myfitnesspal and making much better food. Our issue is portion control which we are working on as well.

I am working hard but am not seeing ANY results. since joinging the gym in august I have actually gained weight. Im just going to be MUCH stricter with my food.
