    Hi! You can do anything you put your mind to. Just log everything you eat, drink a lot of water, and move more. Find something active you enjoy and it won't feel like work to lose weight.

    Me too. I have 157 lbs to lose and 17 down in 4 weeks. It's going to be a long journey but I'm in for it!
    You'll do great!

    Well done on your loss so far! That's around the number I'm looking to lose. Really looking forward to weigh day to spur me on

    Hello, I weigh over 300 pounds as well. There is a road ahead of us, but no dead end. We can keep going and going. Don't put a time limit on yourself. If it takes a year it takes a year, if it takes two then it takes two. For me, there will be so much joy when I can ride roller coasters again, water slides. etc. Heck I can't even fasten my seat belt, but soon I will be able to. I look so forward to the day when I don't have to look up weight restrictions before booking vacations. I know you will do awesome. Congratulations on making such a good decision. Add me as a friend and I will help you as much I can.

    I can't remember the last time I went on a roller coaster, that's going to be so exciting! Good luck on your journey
