    You ladies CAN do this. I started in the 300's. 318. I'm currently 205.5 with 185 as my goal weight. I'm fifty years old and 6 feet tall. I don't do anything extreme I just eat less and move more. Keep plugging away at it EVERY day and you will get out of those 2's. I've gone from a size 26 to a size 16 which is almost better than the scale numbers!

    Hi,

    I've been over 200 for most of the last 20 years despite many efforts to lose weight. I was diagnosed within the last decade with PCOS and finally just recently with insulin resistance - being on the right diet/exercise program and medication is helping a lot! I hope to eventually get down to the weight I was in my early 20s, even though that may be ambitious.

    Hang in there, and be sure to work with your health care practitioners to be sure there's no underlying problems as you continue on your weight loss journey :)

  • Anyone who wants to add me, please do! I've been working out for a while but only joined MFP a couple of months ago. I started with Zumba 1x a week in August 2010. By the next summer I was doing 2 classes per week. Then we got a third class with a second teacher going which was awesome. Then the first teacher got a different day job and the new teacher got too far along in her pregnancy and we were back down to 1x week. I joined a gym in Feb 2012. I lost around 25 pounds with just Zumba, the rest with Zumba and working out. I go to the gym 5x a week usually, alternating upper and lower weight circuits and then cardio all 5 days. I don't do much exercise on the weekends usually, I'm spending time with my two youngest daughters, who are 9 & 11. I also have 4 adult children - sons who are 23, 20 and 18 and a 19 year old daughter.

    So my stats ->

    GW under 200 to start, ultimately I would love to see 150.

    For quite a while I was stuck on a plateau. Once I started MFP and really paid attention to every bite I eat, I started losing 1 pound every week. It works!

    Really want to break the barrier to under 200. Feels like I stay at same weight for a month and then suddenly drop a few pounds. I have to be patient and just keep on going....and get more excersize in !

    I could use the support as well. I have been on mfp for a while but haven't used it like I should be. Really starting to focus again on eating right and exercising. Support from some ladies similar to me would be great. Please feel free to add me as well.

    I am not so worried about the specific number on the scale as much as I would like to have more muscle and be smaller. Based on my past weight and my body type, I think 160-170 would be a good number for me.

    Second time around for MFP! Was doing great losing almost 60 lbs 3 years ago, until a knee injury for 8 months, and fighting Plantar Facitis for the last 2 years.... here I am again! Still can't exercise a lot, but have modified to chair exercises and biking. Would love to have this support again!

    I am in the same boat as the rest of you.
    Most people do not believe I weigh that much, because I don't look it. I sometimes wonder myself where I am hiding all the fat.. LOL
    For some reason they all believe I weigh around 180!!!!
