    Started back again last week at 241, now at 239. Trying to slowly make some changes and just start logging and getting back into normal exercise. Feel free to add me. I need this to stick this time and stop yo-yoing.

    I am new to MFP and currently 207 lbs. I am not new to losing weight successfully. My highest was 227 in Nov of 2007 when I started WW online that time. I lost 75 lbs and got down to 152. I am 5'9 and was in my late 30's so 152 was great for me. I kept it all off for a few years. In 2011 I gained 30 lbs in 6 months (work stress and a new marriage= eating more). Stayed there for few years. Then over the last 15 months I added another 25 :-( to bring me to 207. I decided that I wanted to try something new and am adding MFP (and may drop WW all together if MFP works for me).

    But the good news is I know I can take the weight off and keep it off since I did for a few years. And I am at least lucky that I have gained back 55 lbs but NOT 75 :-) .
    Excited to get back into the 100's soon.

    Started at 230. Down 6 lbs so far. Just started again 2 weeks ago. I also started going to the gym. Can only do 20 minutes now on the treadmill, but looking forward to getting fit.

    I just got cleared to exercise after giving birth to my last son. I was pushing 220 when I had him and am now 205. Ready to get this weight off! I really want to do a sprint triathlon May of 2016.

    That was close to my starting weight too, a few days ago. I am glad to see this post. I could sure use some diet buddies. I thought I was alone on the huge amount I have to lose

    Hi. I started with here at 243 lbs. It was a bit higher before I found MFP, so probably breaking 250. I'm slowly inching my way towards my first goal of under 200. I'm hopingto hit in the next few weeks or so. Feel free to add me as a friend.

    I started out a little over 400. Down to 320ish. The cravings will subside, or you'll just get more creative finding healthier alternatives... which is actually pretty fun. You got this.

    I am 210 starting from 266 in October. You can totally do this! Just don't give up. Do NOT let one bad day (you WILL have them) turn into 2,3,4 bad days. If you overindulge one day don't beat yourself up or feel guilty. Just get back to business the next day. If you overindulge too often there is a ton of support and suggestions here on MFP. Good luck :)
