    Hello:

    I am 249 pounds and trust me, I feel your pain. I have started measuring my food and everything but the other side is EXERCISE. I am a member at a gym but I have been working evenings and haven't got there in a month. I also had surgery on my right foot which is a problem. All I do now is walk, and walk the stairs. I found some DVDs at home and I am going to just do them until I get back to the gym.

    Hello to all. I am 220, 23 years old, 5'11". I weigh the same now as when I was pregnant (last semester). I just started about a week ago. I have an office job, but after work walk my dog, do weight lifting and use an exercise ball. I am very new and would love some friends to help with this journey for support. Feel free to add me.

    I am currently at 212 lbs. When I started in march I was 240 lbs. MFP has been the best thing for me to lose weight. So many people out there with the same goals as me is so inspiring. Anyone can add me!

    I started in February at 204 and I am at 178.6 as of this morning. I have a goal weight of 140....so I'm not even to the "mid point" of my journey :) Personally I find it encouraging to see the "tickers" of people who post who are losing weight....makes me feel like I can do it. I hate that I started out at the weight I did and I feel a little discouraged when people can't see I've lost 25+ lbs so far...but I CERTAINLY know. I keep thinking how awesome it will feel when others can tell :) All I know is that lately I've come to realize that the phrase "Never give up on something just because of the time it will take to accomplish it...the time will pass anyway" is sooooo true. These three months passed anyway, fortunately I changed my diet and managed to progress from walking to running so I feel like I am "doing something of value" with my three months :) I was hoping to hit 30lbs down by my birthday here in two weeks.....here hoping to another small goal. Seeeeeeee.....you are NOT alone <3

    Honey I'm 219 with a few loves handles and loving it problem is my son have a little brain damage that's causing trouble with his vision. Mommy has to be here for her baby. No one will take care him like I will. I wasn't taking my heart palpitation really serious until I found out that there's a possible chance my 8 year old may really need me to stick around a bit longer than this fat will allow. My babies are my motivation and I'm here to share some of that with you dear.

    Anyone feel free to add me as well! I log in every day, and my diary is open! :flowerforyou:

    I started out at 280-285ish. My long term goal is... um... Less. I haven't set a definitive goal because I'm treating my weight loss endeavors like a video game (because I'm a nerd like that). To me, setting an end goal is knowing the end of a video game. I want to play this out without a definite end.

    Hi, 210.2 started at 231.6 in February, goal weight is 150-160 range. I go to the gym 6 days a week and using MFP really helps me. I had a discouraging two weeks these past because of changing my breakfast food only, I'm back on track now and plugging right along. Will share the journey with you, I know it's much easier when you have others cheering you a long.

    214 looking for 170. I was 250 when I turned 30. Now that I am turning 40, it's time to get my act together.

    I eat well, exercise, offer support & motivation, and indulge in the occasional slice of pie and that's ok. Anyone that is cool with that can feel free to add me for lots of "!!!!!!" in their feed (plus tips on making great pies)
