    Hi there I'm re-starting again today (got on the scale at 269 today :( the biggest I've been was 275 but I was in my last week of being pregnant so it isn't really a true weight) feel free to add me I have my sites set on losing small goals first but would love to ultimately reach a good bmi that works for me. I'm 28 and been overweight/obese all my life. I have 2 children 6 & 4, they are my reason to improve myself.

    I am at 257 ( well actually 254 now). 5'"6". Last two dr visits my blood work shows pre diabetic. This one really worried me because I was fasting before the blood test. My doc recommended MFP and my wife and I both joined this week. Feel free to add me because I am tired of being called "fat man" by some of my friends.

    Started in March at 265 (highest 305) and now am down to 231. Goal is 160. Hopefully within 12 months.

    Feel free to add me. I am also a member of this lovely group. Nice people there.

    Hey!!! I am Samantha, I just sent you a friend's request. I just turned 32, I have 2 boys. My highest weight was 287.6 but my weight that I am always at when I am not dieting is 275 give or take a pound. I too want to get down to 180-190. I think we could be great motivation for each other since our weights and goals are so similar :)

    I started "thinking" healthier in February & started mfp in March. Since then I've lost 37.2 pounds! I started at 286. Mostly I've just ate a lot healthier and within my calories goal. I did get a Fitbit zip in April to remind myself to walk more too. This weekend I was able to buy smaller jeans & words cannot describe how excited I was about that! For once I had to decide which of the 20 pairs I tried on & actually fit nicely I wanted to buy! The picture on the left popped up on my "time hop" app this weekend, the right was exactly one year later! It's not the easiest journey, but thankfully mostly everything is habit now!

    Hi I'd like to chat with those who are beginning their weight loss jouney. I weighted myself today at 280. After my son was born in 2013 I weighed 260...that's a 20 lbs gain!!! :( I just got married and the pictures of me are just terrible. I have a goal to lose 100 lbs, it could take one year or it could take five, I don't care! I just want to be healthy for my son and hubby!

    I just sent you a request,I'm trying to lose a similar amount also.
