    Hi all I'm 48 and have been overwieght most of my life. My oldest brother passed away on October and I just decided I needed to try and make some life style changes. I joined this site was 215 when I started and am now 201.3...not setting long term goals but plan to keep going and need motivation.
    Hope we can all help each other

    You can add me!! I have lost 35 and have 48 more to go. I have been working on this for 1.75 years now. slow and steady
    is the pace. No backsliding. I spent the decade of my 40s being careless with my health. I am using the decade of my 50s
    taking care of myself.

    Believe it or not, I'm actually 265 and looking to lose 65 more pounds as well. I'm in need of a rival: though I will encourage and motivate as well.
    Feel free to add me.

    Not new to this. This is my second time around. I've been back for 30 days today! :) Always looking for new friends, especially ones looking to lose significant amounts of weight like myself. I set my goals pretty small but my overall goal is over 100 pounds. I log in every single day and support and motivate as much as I can. The last time I was here, I logged in for 204 days in a row and lost 54 pounds. That was is 2012. In 2013 I ended gaining it all back and then some. But 2014 I'm back again and have managed to lose 17 pounds in my first 30 days!! Sent me a request but let me know how you found me!!:flowerforyou:

    I started back this year trying to really lose weight. My weight went above the 213 that I had originally posted. When I started back I weighed 218 and so far I have lost 9 pounds of that. I am trying to get to at least 160. I was happy when I was that weight. If I lose more that will be great also.

    You can all add me and join the group I just started as well if you want (MFP Friends under Groups in community tab) I just got out of the military. Want to lose around 100lbs. I lost 40 in just over 3 months back in 2009, stayed healthy for a long time but dealing with PTSD and stress when I got back put me in a bad position. However, I know how to lose weight and I can provide answers to a lot of questions that many of you may have in the future.

    My starting weight was 254, current weight is 216, and I'm going for 200lbs (so - 54lbs), though my end goal is 163 (so 91 from start weight, 53 from now)

    I will deffinitely send you a friend request! I feel like it's difficult to relate to those who either need to lose very little, or who were already just in the upper end of normal weight, so it will be good to have some where we have similar starts and goals! :D
