    I don't know if this helps but I was 250, now I'm 150 and struggling to power through these last 30 pounds (I'm only 5'4", so I should be closer to 120) - I could def use support.

    Hey ladies! I am around 220 and working to get down to 150-160 over the next 12 months. Definitely would love to have some friends with similar goals. Feel free to add me and I'll be adding several of you right now. :)

    I'm in a similar situation. Started at 252 before MFP, down to 233, main goal is 175 and anything beyond that is icing on the cake...my healthiest body/build/weight was 150 two decades ago. That would be amazing to reach again. I'm adding you.

    Anyone else, feel free to add me. :smile:
  • I started at 247 and now I'm 208 and still going thanks to Shaun T and Insanity

    That is almost exactly my goal. I am 217 and want to get down to 135, maybe a little more dependent on how well the toning goes. You can friend me if you like.

    Me too! Starting at 212, would like 115-120 (I'm 5'4 and small boned) but would be content with anything under 135. Also, I have fibromyalgia/chronic fatigue and am curious if anyone else has similar issues to contend with. Thanks for starting this!

    I'm with you. Biggest I've ever been at 209 lbs. I definitely need some support. Don't have many friends who understand how hard it is.

    Anyone feel free to add me too. I just started a new account for a fresh start and could use some inspiration! :)

    Dropping by to (hopefully!) encourage you... I lost 275 pounds, going from 410 pounds to 135 pounds in just about 3 years! Lost the first 100 pounds in my first 7 months and the NEXT 175 pounds over the following 2+ years! ☺️

    Clear out ALL trigger foods and commit to having ONLY healthy foods in your home and work space. Plan ahead... that old saying, 'If you fail to plan, you plan to fail!' is true!! So don't get caught without healthy meals planned, healthy snacks available, adequate 'down' time for rest, prepping foods, looking online at menus before heading to eat out, etc...

    And remember, if you make bad choices it does NOT mean you can't do this... that you'll "never change"... Blah-blah-blah!! You CAN and you WILL *if* you want it badly enough!!ev9fwlxb9ade.jpeg
