Hi, I'm Melina . I never had a weight problem until after my husband died. I eventually got up to 275, and I am 5'3". I'm 186 now and I feel like I've found what works for me in terms of weight loss. I thought I would say hi in hopes of adding some friends to help keep me motivated . Losing a lot of weight after such a huge gain feels like getting your life back in many ways!

    Congrats! That is a huge accomplishment. I started my weight loss in November and I'm down 25 lbs. I feel much the same way...Iike I'm getting my life back. I just feel better. I'm also not rushed. I'm giving my body time to lose it healthily and in a reasonable time frame. Keep up the good work!
