83 Pounds To Lose & In Need Of Friends!

Hey! I'm 5'10" too and right now I'm at 273. I desperately need some encouragement here too. I track daily and share my diaries, and I will be happy to add you and also to accept any friend adds from others. Great job on your loss so far, and congratulations on being motivated to continue!

Hi !

Friend request sent....

I'm Rachael. I started at 264.4 and I'm currently at 204 flat. Onederland is so close I can taste it!!!

Look forward to supporting each other!
Rachael

I like - love to hear how others are doing as well . . . Those who keep up with each other seem to do better as well!

I log in here daily and I am also 5'10" and determined to reach my goal which is now which is another 67 pounds though I'm not glued to the number but rather clothes size. *lol* If I weighed 400 lbs and was in a size 8 I'd be way fine with that! (The goal is what the charts say I should weigh and that would be 153 lbs and 22 bmi)

Here's the deal: Ten months ago I started at 268 now I'm down to just under 220. I've been working out with Wii Fit plus every morning before breakfast. Its the way I start my day. I burn off at least 455 calories daily doing so.

My other personal initiative is to move more. The other things I've added periodically is "Get off the Couch" - I have to move it, move it, move it ... and jog during TV commercials (at least for two shows at night as added 'moving').

Please feel free to add me (I haven't figured out how to add someone yet ... but if you like here's my email - CC_maam@yahoo.com

Best of luck to all. In the past, have had terrible eating habits which ultimately lead to health issues, one of which is Celiac disease. This diagnosis forced me to finally take a look at the big picture of my nutritional profile. So far, I have lost 25 pounds and drastically improved my habits. Still can't shake the eating before bed habit but one step at a time. GOOD LUCK!~

I am 5' 10" and started at 276. I will send a friend request. I am 25lbs from my goal of 160.

I sent a friend request. I'm 5'8" and 205.2 lbs. Aiming to get down to 140 lbs so I have 70.2 lbs to lose. So far I've lost 12.6 lbs.

Sending friend request Hello im 5'7 272 and am looking to loose 100 pounds and maybe alittle more getting under 200 is my goal though. Im looking for support and motivation too

I'm 5'10" too!! And my goal is also 175-160. But my plan is to have smaller goals and once I reach one I'll make another. Right now my first goal is to lose 55 pounds by my 30th birthday with is in July.

Anyone feel free to add me as I don't have many MFP friends. Open diary and will help as much as I can.

I'm 5 ft 10/11. Started at 250 last April and am down to 163. All it takes is dedication and making it a habit to log EVERYTHING and you can definitely accomplish want you're aiming for.

Hi there Im Chrys! Im on the way to loose ultimately 100 lbs myself . When I started MFP I was 256 ( which was not my highest weight I actually started months ago at 280 )I am now 235 (which was my first major goal), My next mini goal is 220 by March. Im following a primarily plant based diet with just a little fish thrown in every now and then.Who knows this is working so well I may give up even that and go completely vegetarian. I have found little changes at a time have worked for me and made it easier to keep to a healthier lifestyle. Oh and the spice rack is my bestest friend LOL..way to cut fat and salt without giving up flavor. I incorporate several types of exercise so as not to get bored ,from Aerobic walk dvds to swimming laps and swim aerobics to strength training ,elliptical,.well you get the point I really mix it up a lot. So yeah Im pullin out every weapon I know. I also see a dietitian through my healthcare provider. So theres meh story Im stickin to it. Im always up for adding more friends to my list for shared inspiration.

Hi, I'm new to the website as well ( 1 week) and you may add me as a friend. Good luck in your fitness journey

Hi all,

I restarted 4 weeks ago at 270lbs, which at 5ft 5ins is way too much. I have ME and Fibromyalgia which has meant I've been less active over the last two years and have gained weight from a combination of that and bad eating habits. I went part time at work last year and my overall health has improved some as a result - I now feel I have energy for me as well as work!

So I joined Slimming World 4 weeks ago and have lost 7.5lbs so far. I've logged some of my days eating on here to see how it tallies up and I'm usually around 1600 calories, which is below my target. I do log my activity, most of which has been walking. Though I joined the gym today with my partner and really enjoyed my workout even if it wasn't as hard going as a lot of people's would be.

I have been on MFP for a while (I tried to lose some last year but my poor health made it really hard so getting better became my priority) and am pretty good at replying to posts, giving likes and encouragement as I'm in it for the long haul and know how much that encouragement means! I don't really understand macros or that kind of thing but am happy to celebrate all the little achievements as well as the big ones. So please feel free to add me if you think I could support you or you could support me :-)
