Hello...I am 58yo married and weighed 350 on Sept 24 on my visit to my doctor. I don't know too many people that are my age or older at that weight.....they must be extinct.... So, I am pretty serious about my situation and would like to be at 250 next September. MFP says if I eat 2,060 calories a day I should reach that goal. I started MFP on 6th Oct. I don't own scales. I think I have lost about 20 pounds since my Dr visit because I have already dropped a pant size, which typically equates to 20 pounds for me based on prior dieting. I have probably lost my current weight over my lifetime and put it back on again. Up 35, down 35 ten times is my weight on Sept 24. So far, I have met my calorie goal every day but one. I am determined to see this through, one day at a time. I have decided to wait and start excersizing after I get below 300 pounds as I don't want to over stress my ticket.
Thanks for helping with your likes and comments.

I'm Karen. Mother of two kids - 6 yo girl and 18 month old boy. I am at my highest ever weight now. I was not able to lose any weight after my son was born and have been going up steadily over the last few months. I need to have some surgery in January and am using that as motivation to drop some pounds. Hopefully being a bit lighter will speed my recovery and aid in the success of my surgery so.... Starting weight is 192 and goal weight is 175.0

Hi I'm Erin, recently finished high school and realised the freshman 15 wasn't just a myth! I am at my highest weight, 163 pounds at 5"7. Used to be involved in various sports during high school including rowing which made my appetite really big. Since finishing high school I haven't done much in the way of exercise so not only did I gain 15 pounds, but I gained 22 hahaha
My goal weight is to loose as much of that 22 pounds as I can before new year (New Year in Australia will mean beaches and bikinis)! Let the running and rowing machine become a part of my life once again
Good luck everyone!
Goals:
Eat less sugar
Drink more water
Make at least half my meal vegetables 0 -
I'm Liz and my weight loss journey has been a struggle. I started running a few years ago, triathlon recently, and though I'm not eating McDonald's on the reg now, I am not seeing the scale dip more than 10 lbs and then I get discouraged put it all back on!
I am in my friend's wedding in 2016 so would like to look more in shape by then.

Hello everyone! My name is Taylor, and I'm a 23 year old teaching English overseas. I was always overweight until college, when I lost a lot of pounds and got really fit. But the stress of my last year, plus moving to another country, ended up bringing me right back to where I started and then some. Just started MFP, so I'm looking forward to my first challenge to kick start getting to my goals!

Hello everyone, I'm Marnie, a 45 year old retiree, mother of a 21 year old daughter. I've struggled with my weight most of my life. I was starting to lose weight again about 2 years ago but then a year ago I encountered some back issues and that basically stopped most of my exercising. I'm now allowed to walk moderately for about 30-45 min a day. Unfortunately this put me back on the weight gain again. I know this is no excuse but I now have to try to learn to eat without having the benefit of those extra "exercise" calories to use.
Highest weight 205 lbs
Starting weight 198 lbs
Goal weight at end of challenge 178 lbs0 -

Hi everyone...I am Ashley, 31, single, working mom of two girls. I am currently at my heaviest I have ever been and am struggling with my food. I moved out of state and in with my boyfriend over a year ago, and had to quit roller derby because I was moving away. I didn't realize what a huge impact not having that exercise would mean for me. Since I moved, I have packed out 30 pounds. A couple months ago, I started working out, but have continued to gain weight because of my food. Ultimately, I want to lose 45 pounds, so I can have my clothes fit me again and so I can be more confident again!
