    Today is day one of my third week. Long road ahead. I'm 5'3. SW 227, CW 222. I've started and stopped more times than I can count, but really need to get the weight off and keep it off this time. However, I'm cursing myself for starting during Halloween month! Ha!

    Hi! I'm 27, 5'7" and currently hovering around 240lbs.

    I've been on and off MFP for over 3 years, inspired by acquaintances and the idea of tracking but not dedicated enough to stay on it. My goal weight would be somewhere around the 160 mark, to start.
    I have always been heavy as a kid and into adulthood. I have never let my weight hold me back and have led a pretty active lifestyle all throughout my twenties. I eat healthy, and have small indulgences once in awhile. This is how I would describe my diet to a doctor, but in reality my eating habits lately has been poor. Small indulgences have triggered full on binges, and my once active lifestyle has become increasingly more sedentary. I have recently made active changes to this pattern, enrolling in fitness classes I enjoy and tracking my meals on MyFitnessPal. Up until this post and recent posts made on other threads, I have been in the closet on my weight loss journey alone.
    I know that when losing weight community makes a difference. I don't know about anyone else, but I'm one of these people who know all of the right things to do to lose weight but I self sabotage. Can anyone relate?
    I hope that the steps I'm taking to diligently track and reach out to others with my same weight to lose will help me in keeping myself honest and focused on my goals.
    Thank you for reading, I hope to hear your stories and show support as well as receive it on this thread.
    - Maddy

    Hello! I am 23 and 230lbs at 5'7"

    Add me!!

    I am trying to get back down to my athletic weight of 150. I was super active until 2 years ago when i suffered a sports injury that sent me spiralling. Gained nearly 100 lbs in 2 years!! The past two years I've been yo-yo dieting without lasting success. During the past month I've decided to go back to basics of watching my diet and lots of sweaty exercise - and it's been working!! 10 lbs down in 3 weeks. My goal is to be down to 175 by summer. Then work it off slow and steady from there!!

    Hi, I'm 61 and 5'8. Been on about eight days this time and have lost about six pounds. CW is 238; starting weight was about 258 after several stops and starts. I have terrible arthritis and avoid exercise because of it, even though I know I must do it to facilitate weight loss. Trying to cut gluten foods as much as possible. At this point I would be thrilled to hit 200! But I know a more suitable weight would be around 170.

    I am 5'10" and weigh about 215 pounds. I need to lose 50 pounds to be at my goal weight of 165. I am eating a mostly vegan diet right now (planning on going full vegan soon, but I am transitioning slowly). This diet change is causing me to be way more creative with food. I am eating so many fruits and vegetables and honestly it is giving me so much energy. I am going to the gym every day for a month doing 30-45 minutes of cardio and also following Cassey Ho's Beginner 2.0 fitness program. That is the Blogilates YouTube videos work out. I am weighing myself every Thursday as well as taking progress pictures. You can totally add me as a friend on here and hopefully we can motivate each other!


    My goal is to lose 20 pounds by my birthday in January, where I will also be attending a gaming convention, PAX South. Then I want to lose the rest of the weight hopefully by July! :)
