Hi I'm 5'3' 240lbs
I have been this way for a few years now. I never really tried or even wanted to lose weight because my weight is in "all the right places" is what I've heard. But last year I decided to take things seriously because I was 271 when I moved here (last year). I'm back down under 250 but I'm stuck here. So I'm trying fitness pal.
Oh yeah my name is CeCe0 -
Hi Candace! I'm 5'3" and 236 right now. I'm a week into starting over after a baby and surgery so I'm back to square one and I could sure use some encouragement and would love to cheer you on as well.
I originally joined 2 years ago but about 5 months into it found myself pregnant, I tried to keep doing workouts but due to complications I had to stop, so basically I felt like the pounds crept on and there was nothing I could do. Ended up having my first c-section then 8 months later surgery. Anyway, I would LOVE some motivation and support as it's getting a but daunting with no one cheering me on as I go. lol0 -
Hi ,
I'm starting my journey also I tried fitness pal before and wasn't consistent , I'm hoping getting involved in a support group will help me reach my first goal which is 60pounds off by December..
I hope we all reach our health goals0 -
Right there with you, Candace. I just joined on Monday, and I'm trying to make a lot of "friends" for mutual support. Feel free to add me, and good luck!0

I just joined today, and am determined to do something about my overall health. I just tipped 200 lbs and hate it. I gain weight very evenly, so it can creep up without me even realizing it. I am a size 14, ultimately I want to get back down to 150, which is about a size 8 for me. I like the way it tracks sugar on here, for I have a -14 and didn't really eat much sugar...so I thought. lol. I just need something simple and actionable....
I don't have any groups/friends listed, so if anyone wants to encourage one another, add me.0 -
Thank you so much everyone! This is already the push that I need. You guys are wonderful!0

I started out well over 200 lbs. 3 years ago. Now, I am well under. You can add me if you'd like.0

Hi Candace
I am 5'5" but well over 200 lbs so I am here too. I just again started logging food and exercise, was doing really well with a lower carb lifestyle last year, hubby got sick and has been undergoing treatment since last November, and I have put all of the weight I lost back on.
Feel free to add me - I look foward to getting to know you as we make our journeys together!

Hi Candace! I'm right there with you, though a little taller with a bit more weight. I've been on here for (I think) 5 weeks now and I'm 12 lbs down (didn't log my weight and loss at first). Working well so far. It will work for you as well!0

Hi Candace! I'm 5'4 and 233 lbs. Have been an on again, off again MFP user for longer than I care to admit, but when I'm "on", it's great! I'd also love to make friends with you ladies in the same boat!0

Ladies, I'm 6' 2" and 125 kg a couple of weeks ago, I think that's about 245lbs, (two weeks is 14days definitely) I have no intention of going all macho - no brain - alpha male - but could also do with some encouragement. I've shifted the first 5kgs/ 11 lbs already, using the food diary, diet and exercise, need to keep this going though...........0

Just joined last week. I'm 5'2" 200+ pounds. Feel free to add me and we can motivate each other.0

Hi Can! *waving* Im right there with you girl. I joined about a week ago becuase I felt a public commitment might have a little more staying power for me. My goal is to lose 40 pounds... 10 is my first milestone. Would love to have a partner to checkin and checkon!
Lets do it!
