Hey. I have 184lbs to lose and I would love to be friends with people who have lost or need to lose 150lbs or more, or people with a starting weight of 350lbs+. If anyone's in that position, feel free to add me! Mutual support is a wonderful thing. :)

    I'm right there!!! I've been a member for awhile as well as using my fitbit....but I was not at all dedicated. I've gained and lost so many times. After this last gaining after loss...well ugh. I've never been heavier. So....I'm on day 3 of my journey to lighten up and really live!!! We can do this...and we need to learn just because we fall doesn't mean we can't get back up ????

    Hi all,

    First time commenting. My goal is to lose somewhere between 190 & 200lbs. I started out at 414lbs on December 31st and am currently at 376lbs. Feel free to add me. It would be nice to keep tabs on people with as extreme weight loss needs as me.

    I weighed in at 377 lbs in early January when I stepped on the Doctor's scale. Currently at 348 lbs with about 150-160 to go. Years ago I had pretty good success using the Fitday PC program but this time around it was a pain in the *kitten* having to manually enter nutritional info off of packages, then I found this site and the database has just about everything already. Currently at about 40 days straight of logging everything.

    Hi, my name is Barbara. Good for you...you will find lots of friends on myfitnesspal. We all needed help. If I had to compare this site with weight watchers.....I would give it a number 10. It does all the work for ME! I've weighed 388 pounds. Tried weight watchers, nutra-system, akins...you name it I have tried. I even had the bypass surgery. Yes, Ioss the weight. But after few years of losing the weight....you guess it......I found out I really never learned how to eat and my weight slowly crept back to 285 pounds. Thank God, he gave my daughter this site to give me. I was heading back to 388 pounds. So.....please take it from me.....learn the RIght Way of getting rid of those pounds....keep.using myfitnesspal. I am now down to 270 pounds. I started 45 days ago....and I love it! I bet in a few years from now...I will NOT have that problem I had with my bypass surgery...instead I WILL...have learned....to eat healthier.....and once again love Me! Luv to be your friend.

    I too am in the same boat - SW was 362, I'm down 4lbs in 3 months, and definitely would like to have some friends who are going to be going through a similar battle!
