    Are you talking about that book; Pay It Forward by Catherine Ryan Hyde that was later made into a movie? Exactly what was the concept? You help someone and then they help someone and so on... was that it?

    I liked the movie. I think there is alot of people looking at the success stories but no one is getting involved. Im trying to get people to get involved. No more sitting on sidelines. We talk about success and we help with struggles.

    Started near beginning of November, reckon i was about 17st but didnt weigh in for a week or so after I started and was about 16st 8, dropped to 13st 11 since then. MFP has really made me aware of what I eat and how much exercise I do or don't do. Found brisk walks a great way to exercise without really feeling it, the weight has just dropped off, doing more physical stuff such as weights and tough cardio now I'n reaching maintenace level (13st 7lb). A little concerned how quick I've lost it, all the women keep asking me my secret, pretty simple though if you burn more calories than you eat you'll lose weight!

    I'm steadily shrinking. I'm 5'9" and weighed 212.6 Christmas 2009. Quickly dropped 10 lbs but then quit yet again, stayed at around 202 for about 7 months and then something finally clicked on 9-1-2010. Since then I've dropped around 21 lbs and I weighed in today at 181.6. My goal is 160 and I plan to get there by June 1st. I also started keeping track of body fat % this week and I'm at about 24.2%. I don't have a clue where my body fat % was when I started at 212.6 lbs but I'm sure it was well over 30%.

    Thanks for all your motivation and involvement on here, I'm looking forward to pushing eachother to success!
