Hi there I'm Christine, 5'3" and started at 229, I am now down to 220 and lost a few inches... My goal is currently 160, as my hubby told me he would literally be scared if I was "skinny" and likes my "thickness" as it is now. I'm trying to lose weight for me, as it is really what I want, and I wouldn't be upset if 160 was my weight for the rest of my life(I once weighed that much and really wasn't "fat" like I feel now) So I am just trying to lose weight, gain some muscle, and be in great shape(exercise and eat right)

Hello Catherine. I am starting today. I have been diagnosed with Pre-Diabetes and I refuse to allow something and someone control my life. I was put in charge of me when I was born. So I am at 244 and looking to shed 75lbs. You keep up the good work. I love to eat also, so I know it will be a struggle.0

Hello everyone. I am Mariah. I am trying to get down from the 209.9 lbs that I started at and 36.7% body fat to do my first bikini diva's competition either November 2013 or when the next season starts in March of 2014. I have done a model quest competition before, but that was 9 years ago. Since then I have put all the weight back on and I remember that as being one of the most enjoyable times of my life so I am ready to do it again. I started working out at home for the first 4 weeks with great results, and have been in the gym ever since going on week 12 now. I have only lost 7 lbs, but I have lost over 30 inches all over. I am not worried about the number on the scale because I measure weekly and take pics every 4 weeks to check my progress and it's coming along great. I do cardio and weight train daily. I used to do 6 days on and 1 day off, but I was just too tired by the end of the week to get any kind of good workout in so I am no doing 3 days on and 1 day off starting this week and I'll see how that works out for me. I seem to have a lot more energy to put into the workouts and it seems to keep me more motivated knowing I'll have a day off sooner. lol0

I won't criticize your food diary...not my thing! Honestly, I don't even look at them.
I will give you lots of high fives for exercising and losing however much you lose and sticking with it and coming back after a bad day and random NSVs
I'm currently at 203 shooting for 145.0 -
Hi my name is Jenny, I am 46 years old. I weigh 286.4 and would like to loose 130 lbs. I have struggled for the last 20 years with losing weight. I have 3 years until I'm 50 and it would be nice to have lost the weight so I can enjoy the outdoors again, by hiking.0

Hi I'm Mari. Just found this site yesterday. I have a LOT of weight to lose. I was on the WW site and someone mentioned this one so I'm trying to find my way around it right now. I'm 321 to start. I feel miserable. I'm looking for menus. Is there anywhere out here to find them in the 1500 calorie range so I can get an idea of what I should really be eating?0
