    I'll send you a friend request. I started last year at 292, got down to 258 and then fell off the wagon and gained back to 271-ish. I just restarted this week and so did my partner- feel free to friend request her as well (kayeellis125). I like to stay active here daily as far as updating and commenting, etc.

    In March, I started out @ 236, 5'7', & 7 months later I'm now down to 174. I know the feeling of frustration of not finding what you want in the store, due to being obese. I have found what works for me, & others have been inspired by my progress. Friend me if you'd like. :)

    You can add me if you like. I started in May at 218(22lbs lighter then my heaviest of 240, but thats a different story), did weight watchers for 4 months then joined mfp(which I like much better) Im currently 167. It can definitely be a difficult road to travel down.

    I understand wanting to befriend people who are going through the same thing as you, but I would urge you to also befriend those who were once where you are, and have successfully reached their fitness goals. You could learn a lot from friends like that, too.

    Best of luck.

    I have a lot of smaller girls on my list who really help me also. I love talking to those who were heavy and have lost a considerable amount of weight. Diversity is awesome. But I feel you.
