  • Wow! Just retread what I wrote and talk about bad auto correct. we are not atheist as a matter of fact my husband is a baptist preacher. That was just wrong. I can't stop giggling . I was trying to say that he isn't real good at the motivation part.

    Hi, I'm Deana. I'm 5'3 and a half (work with me on the half - :laugh: ) Just joined. Have to lose 40 - 50 lbs. No options as now Type 2 Diabetic. As I'm 50 with meds now so . . . Please add me. I can't wait to support everyone on their journey.

    Will upload picture later. Still inputting stuff! :happy:
  • I am 5'0" and have lost about 70 pounds so far. But I still have over 100 to go. So I can definitely relate. I have rheumatoid arthritis, so it makes it more difficult to exercise and my meds also complicate things. But I am determined to beat this thing! Good luck to you and everyone else who is fighting for their health. :happy:

    OK I am not short JUST FAT I am 5'8" and as of today down 11.5 in past 2.5 weeks since Jan down 20 but I keep adding and losin the same 10-20lbs over the last few years. quit smoking 6 years ago and added 50 had Ovarian Cancer 9 years ago and added 30, I survived by having 30lb LMP tumor removed but it had the Ovarian Cancer inside it so after surgery nothing else, THANK GOD. I ate cake all summer. I had been dieting so hard all that year just kept gaining weight. fortunately LMP tumor grew to such a huge size 30+lbs that it finally became obvious when I went in again to complain about stomach issues that they did CT Scan and found it. Almost killed me but had it removed soon after and ate cake. So in last few years have gained 80 lbs but that's OK I am alive. so please add me, i need to get motivated and accountable
  • I am 5'2" with another 84 lbs to lose. Although at this point I am far less into watching the scale and more into watching what I see in the mirror and how my clothes feel (as well as the measurements).

    I realize that I will most likely weigh a bit more than my "ideal" when I gain the muscle and tone that I want to have. I log daily and love motivating individuals with positive attitudes. Feel free to request me!!

    He everyone,

    I'm Crystal, I'm 5'2 and have about 45 more lbs to lose. I had lost over 120 lbs, was put on some medication, had a hysterectomy, and ended up gaining 50 lbs back in the last couple of year from the meds and the surgery.
    I've gotten about 7 off in the last week, logging all of my food and exercising.
    Feel free to add me, I'm new to this site, and still trying trying to figure it all out.
    Have a great Sunday, everyone.

    Crystal

    I am 5'1/2" and my start weight (before I found MFP) was 227. My goal is to get to 125 lb. I am 57 years old, a grandmother of 2 (soon to be 3), and a HS math teacher in Southern California. I am currently at 193.6 so I have lost about 33 lbs (23 before MFP) so I still have about 69 lbs to lose. I hope that in the next year I can safely lose about 50-60 lbs. If anyone is like me and needs support, please feel free to add me.

    5'3.5" here. Started at about 203. Down to 155.6 as of today. I've been losing and gaining for years. I still have about 15lbs before I hit my goal of 140. Hoping to hit that by the end of the year. So a 60lb lost is my goal. The lowest I want to be is 125-130.
