    I'm 25 years old, 5'10" (178 cm) and weighed in yesterday at 340 lbs (154 kgs)! The last time I saw this on the scale I was 9 months pregnant in 2012. My lowest adult weight was 255 in 2014, and then I fell off the wagon hard.

    I have had a binge eating disorder for as long as I can remember. I went through drug-based treatment in 2014 which backfired and it (in-part) sent me spiraling back into depression and BED. Now since August of 2014 I gained back nearly 100 pounds and I need to end this now. I have been diagnosed with severe binge-eating disorder and am beginning to get help for it with a counselor and a dietitian.

    HOWEVER - I know I can lose the weight and control my BED because I've done it before.

    I'm looking for new friends, preferably positive-minded people who are/have been in the same situation as me.

    It's time to stop feeling sorry for myself and start taking care of myself!

    Hi! I'm 20 years old and looking for some friends to motivate me. I used to have an account here before, but I deleted it because I wasn't consistent with it. I decided to start anew again since I managed to gain 5 kg back from the 15 I lost a year ago. My goal is to lose another 15 kg (33 lbs), for now, maybe my goal will change over time.
    Feel free to add me :)

    Looking for new friends since a lot of my old ones are inactive or deleted me due to inactivity. Losing weight to go to South Korea and also for my sister's wedding which will most likely be spring 2017. Also trying to train to do a half-marathon for my 24th birthday in July.

    Lost over 60lbs 2/3 years ago (with MFP). Best thing I ever did. Kept it off pretty well until recently.

    To be honest, I haven't weighed. I worked so hard to lose what I did and feel like I've let myself down so I just don't want to know. I feel it'll be a big punch in the gut and it's not worth it right now. It's nothing near 60lbs, but it will end up that way if I don't do something about it now. I'll weigh once I've been at it again for a few weeks.

    Last time I did this I had a great bunch of people on here, so I'm looking for another group of people who can help me get to goal, all over again!

    I have 90 pounds to lose and I am looking for someone to buddy with for 2016 who will be willing to help me, and whom I am willing to help, build an accountability structure to meet our goals. The structureI see for myself looks like a 10 minute skype call in the morning and a 10 minute skype call in the evening. Doing the skype we will share our goals for the day. At the end of the day we will have another 10 minute skype call where we will go over what we did and didn't do that day. We can look at what worked and what didn't work (not what is wrong) about fulfilling the promises for the day so we can add or take away what's needed the next day.

    Starting today I am looking to change my life. I am not doing this as a New Years Resolution. I am doing this because I am resolved to change my life and would love love love to buddy with someone on the same path. I am very empathetic, a great listening, and willing to be there.

    If any of you like this and would like to partner please let me know:-)

    I can always use more friends/motivation! I am a RN and single mom of two teenage boys. I have a lot of weight to lose, but mostly I want to be healthier and be a good role model for my kids. I have been on MFP for a couple of years but keep stopping and restarting. I'm trying to make this time my last time starting over!
