Ya can add me - I started @ 318, MFP @ 295 - I'm now around 230, but I've lost 10 clothing sizes and now weight lifting.0

I started AT 250, if that counts. Anyone who wants more support, feel free to add me.0

I started at 245, that was my breaking point for me as I had promised myself if I hit 250, I didnt want to live anymore. That mentality is gone anyway, and I'm at 226 right now, working hard. I forgot how hard it was to really exercise and I could always use more friends0

Congrats to you for making the choice to live healthier! It's a commitment that not everyone is willing to do. So kudos for that!!! I started at the heighest weight of my life. I was 302.6 lbs. Currently I am between 224-229. I have been at this for a year now. I just celebrated my 380th day of logging today!
Feel free to add me for encouragement and mutual support!0 -
I am starting at over 300, add me we can help motivate each other0

I was heavier than that when I started in March 2013. Get motivated and get moving. It is possible. I hadn't tried to lose weight in 20 years. Exercise and water is the key. Get on a plan and stick to it. I used Dr Ian Smith's book "Shred : The Revolutinary Diet. If you mess up or cheat , forgive yourself and start all over again . Stick to it. Good luck.
