Just looking for some people who are over 300# or who -were- over that. Just need some motivation as I begin this journey--for the last time! I swear, I will find success once and for all.



I am 29, 330# and 5'9".

(I'd post a pic, but this message board is different than others I've been on. Still figuring it out.)

    Hi!! :laugh:
    I am 5'7, 27 years old and started out weighing 318. I'm currently down 26 pounds. I don't mind helping to motivate. I can understand how friends in the same boat can be crucial to helping others. I'm here if you need me! Good luck on your journey~

    I am 5' 8" , 33 years old and nearly 10 weeks ago I was 322lb. As of weigh in this monday I am 280lb :bigsmile:
    I am so glad I have stuck at it and now I feel more confident that I will carry on sticking at it.
    I am doing high fat, moderate protein, low carb because that fits best with my medical issues and it kills my cravings, but people are doing great on all sorts of plans, it is just a matter of persistent experimentation to find what works for you and then not giving up when scales do not always play nice, as long as eating healthily then the weight does come off if stick at it, not always in a consistent logical way, sometimes it yoyos but over all the weight comes off if stick at it.

    Welcome! I weighed 453 last November and I'm now at 275. My diary is public, although I only started using MFP a few months ago. I'll try to help in any way I can. Good luck!

    380 when I started Weight Watchers. 374 when I signed up at MFP on August 18. Then, 353 as of Sept. 15th. I hope everyone here does well.
    Success!

    Hi, I'm 5'6 ,44 years old. When I started on June 5th I weighed 313.2.

    I barely qualify.

    I'm 23, and nearly 6'. My highest weight was 307. I had gotten down a bit from there, but gained back to 298 when I started in June.

    This morning my scale said 274 though I only log my Friday weigh in, so we'll see.

    Anyone can add me, but I post a lot and it's not always about weight loss.

    So, I'm hoping by the end of January to be back in the 200s. At the end of Jan. I turn 30, so it just seems to fit.

    hi all :flowerforyou: I'm Betty and I'm 317lbs today after starting here in mid July at 369lbs. I'm active on MFP every day and have found this to be the greatest, most understanding, and supportive community of people to have around you when you are fighting this good fight to get fit and healthy!!! My story may be unique compared to others, but the struggle is still the same. I'm presently living a 20 carbs a day lifestyle which is doctor supervised. I've had much success with it since July. My diary is open to be viewed. I welcome all friendship requests and will strive to show you support as much as I possibly can. Best wishes to all :flowerforyou:

    Hi everyone! I'm 25, 5'7 and was around 330 at my heaviest - not entirely certain where I am right now because I've been out of town for a couple of months. I could always use more support, and would love to be that support for anyone who needs it!

    Feel free to add me if you'd like :-)
