Hi

I am 35 and based in the uk. I weigh 240 lbs and need to loose half my body weight. I am looking for friends and support from anyone who is fighting the battle or won the war.

Thanks

    I am with you! I have to lose over 100 pounds myself. I am in Florida, but more than willing to encourage you to walk that pretty dog in your picture even in the rain!

    I need to lose more than half mine! Beat you :). We can beat it together. I have lost over 20 now and just keep moving along. The support on here is great. There really is something about a shared experience

    Stick to your diet and exercise hard and you will make it for sure. Stay on top of the mental game.

    Please add me. At 5'4" and about to turn 45, I'm currently 249 pounds, aiming for something like 155, and I'm terrified. I just joined MFP this morning and I'm eager to find (and give) support on this journey.

    I'm 39... I started at 138kg / 304 pounds (5'6) :( so needed to lose over half mine... I'm 32kg / 70 pounds down now and at least another 41kg / 90 pounds to go.

    MFP and my Fitbit have changed my life... No, change that... *I* have changed my life with the awesome help of MFP and my Fitbit One :)

    I have lost 56 pounds so far but have another 126 to go to reach my eventual target. Happy to help anyone but need support as well, this thread sounds good.
