So I am 21 years old, a single mum to one son who is a couple of weeks off 5!
I have just hit 200lb and seeing it made me feel sick. It's the highest number I have ever seen on the scale since I started weighing myself around 3.5 years ago. I don't know if I even weighed 200lb in the weeks after giving birth. I have decided my goal weight is 140lb but really it is size UK10/US6 clothes and a toned healthy body.

This year is going to be my year, I want to be at my goal weight by December 2015. I quit smoking on the 11th February 2015. I will be healthy.

I am looking for friends to help keep me on track and I will try to return the favour.

    Just worked out my weight :-( 224 lbs at 5'3". A bit shocked! Trying to run 5k a couple of times a week which is going okay but I have NO willpower when it comes to food. Good luck on your journey.

    Hey I am seeing the same thing. I am a single parent of 2 boys and 26 years old. I just hit 199 lbs and it made me sick. I've never seen that high of a number. I'm done making excuses and looking to make progress. I want to weigh around 140 lbs. Please add me ;)

    You can add me as well if you'd like. I am 5'0" and 198. I'm 22 yrs old. My starting weight was 210lbs. I just don't feel like I'm losing my weight fast enough and would like extra support. :)

    I have similar stats... 204 and 5'5". I started my weight loss journey at 230 and got down to 165. Then life happened and I gained most of my weight back (210). Now I am starting over
