      Just wanted say,
      we all want to loose it quickly but unfortunately it doesn`t quite work that way. It took a while to put "it' on and it will go slowly too BUT it`s not just weight loss, it`s a change in lifestyle. I know, don`t you just hate those people who don`t put on a pound and eat ANYTHING they want? As for us, we gain weight looking at a piece of cake! I HATE that! Just hang in! When the weight starts coming off, you will be inspired to keep going and if you fall back, it`s okay! Just begin again! Good Luck!

      Hello! I am 18 years old. I have been struggling with anorexia for almost a year but am finally starting to accept recovery as well as my body. Although I often wish I was back at my lowest weight, I am trying to focus more on feeling good in my body regardless of the number on the scale! I would love to talk to individuals who have recovered or are recovering from their eating disorders that would like to give and receive support.

      height: 5'3
      highest: 120
      lowest: 98
      current: 105
      goal: happy and healthy!

      Hey!

      I'm 5'1" (and a half :)

      Starting Weight - 130
      Current Weight - 121

      I'm very happy where I am right now. I'm just working out hard and trying to reach PR's as well as recomp my body a bit more. It is very difficult to lose weight when your so short though! Every portion practically needs to be cut in half. I am constantly taking leftover food home from restaurants LOL - I mean I COULD eat it all, but I don't want to!

      Feel free to add me :)

      I'm 43 y/o. Been mostly heavy ever since having kids...I tend to yoyo. Anyway, here are my stats:

      5'1"
      sw 196
      cw 163
      goal 135ish

      More than 1/2 way there and still going which is already pretty good for me! Need to keep the motivation and healthy lifestyle to keep losing and keep it off!

      5'2"
      SW: 121
      CW: 114
      GW: 108

      The weight comes off a lot slower as I get closer to my goal weight. I weight myself every day and it's amazing to me how much it fluctuates. I'm still looking for a pattern!

      I'm 5'3"(and 1/2, ha), 135lbs, looking to burn some body fat and build muscle. Anyone may add me if you wish because I'd love to have more friends for support and motivation (giving and receiving!).

      27 yr old 5 ft 3 SW: 160 CW:150 GW: 120

      My body stays stuck at 150-145 I have been here for much too long. But not ready to give up....
      I guess I would like friends with food diary that is open so I can get ideas what people my size are eating and calories consumed because that is what I am having the most troubles with. Working out isnt a problem for me its finding that balance between eating enough to fuel my workouts and eating enough deficit to lose weight.

      Feel free to add me but tell me you seen my post here...

      Good luck on your journey all!
