friends weighing over 200s please

jbastone · May 2013

Hoping all of us can support each other. Started out at over 300lbs in January, down 71lbs with hard work and determination. Still have over 100 to go. Would love to have more friends that I can support and that will give me a swift kick in the *kitten* if I falter. Feel free to add me. It is a journey that starts with small steps and is so much better with company.

Hi there add me anyone. I started this journey Dec 2011 at 305 lbs at least thats what the scale said then. I didnt weigh myself before then but going by how my clothing fit I had to of been heavier. I got down to 265 were I have been for the last 6 or so months. Life has been crazy and at times I gave up. Im now doing Insanity work outs on youtube. And on day 2 my muscles are killing me. Each video is about 40 minutes long and since Im out of shape and over weight I break the videos up into 2 work outs 1 in the AM and 1 in the PM with a 30 minute walk in the afternoon or after dinner. I start off gung ho but seem to taper off and lose focus. Im hoping that by making more "active" friends on here that I will have to do my work outs and check in with everyone.

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one that wants to see people lose more than vanity weight!

I started in January at 257 and am now (almost exactly five months later) at 221 (so 36 lbs down). I want to get down to at least 186 and then we'll see how it goes. My target calorie range (I'm 5'5") is 1808-2000 calories a day, I try to avoid processed foods and eat as clean as I can tolerate (but I still enjoy the occasional wine), and I log absolutely everything I eat. I don't log my exercise, though. Anyone in this chain who tries to maintain a positive and healthy outlook is welcome to add me.

Hi All,

First post. I am 6.1 feet and at 255lb, lost 45lb in last 5 month and hoping to reach 220lb within next 4 months. It was fun as losing weight while eating our fav food( pizza, sweets. etc) was challenging. At the end of the day is balancing with other healthy food which help the most. And most important exercise.

Hullo...I'm 275...after thinking I was 258 or some odd for a bit of time. D'oh. I've done the opposite and instantly weighed more! Magic! But, yup, I'm in the 200s and I'm gunning for 258 now. LOL!

Oh, so funny. A lot of hard work ahead of us, but I see those that lose and it gives me hope.

Hi folks, im 210 aiming for 150 feel free to add me. im on every day and have an open diary

lkarv · May 2013

I think I'll join in on this one too

Nope you're not alone, there seems to be plenty of us here. I'm currently in the 260's and am hoping to lose 50kg i.e 110 pounds. Quite a long way to go, am not sure whether I should set a mid-goal rather than the whole lot at once.

Anyhoo I'm 28 and I got to this point because I enjoy stuffing my face when I'm stressed out. Food has always been a great source of comfort for me. Over the past few months I've been working on reducing stress and now I hope to reduce stress on my body by getting my weight down and being able to exercise properly. Am on my third day now and am hoping it gets easier after today. Oh and I also gained a lot of weight after quitting smoking a year and a half ago.. so there's that too. Gah!

I'm looking for positive friends who enjoy life and can have a laugh about life, weight, love or whatever.

I hadn't weighed myself for a year and went to the doctor yesterday. Weigh what I did when pregnant 237 and my daughter is 18. Back on here and trying to get motivated. hate the scale,but just bought one of those scales records the weight and just tells you if you lost each day. I definitely need this group and support..:flowerforyou:
