    Hi everyone! Please feel free to add me! I am a 24 year old female. I started at 212lbs and my goal weight is 150. Though I've used mfp before I never tried the social aspect of it because I was embarrassed and ashamed. I thought I should struggle alone which I now see only makes it easier to relapse on eating junk n not exercising. I'm ready to add friends in order to keep myself on track and accountable! Let's support each other!!! :)

    Me too! Started out 240. I lost 35 lbs. I gained back 15. I need to get back on track. I'd love someone to help motivate and support me and vice versa.

    I'm in the same boat as you all! Started out at 215, currently weight 199, but trying to get down to around 130. I made it down to 175 a few years ago, but gained a lot back. I'm now trying to get back into the swing of things to finally reach my goal weight

    Me! Add me! I'm currently at 211, heaviest was 219 about 3 weeks ago. Trying to lose 50lbs, but my goal progress is 2lbs a week so it's rough. I'm getting married April 1 and need to lose 15lbs between now and then...doable but rough. Looking for exercise advice--right now I have a weekly dance class for 2 hours, PIYO twice a week, walking on treadmill for 1 hour twice a week as my regime.

    Feel free to add me! I've lost 14 pounds so far this year and been on adipex for the past week. Started the year off at 250, currently 236, and have a goal of 150! I'm definitely saying goodbye to my fat! :)

    Hi, I'm new to MFP-feel free to add me-i can totally relate to you. I was at 230 after I had my son, and got stuck at 220, until I stated working out. Now I'm down to 170...still working to lose another 20-25 lbs.

    Hi! I'm in a similar boat as all of you! I started out at 234lbs and weighed in at 227 today but I keep getting discouraged because it seems like the number on the scale just does not move! I would love to get down to 160 but my first goal is just to get under 200. It feels so good just to share numbers with someone since I keep them hidden from everyone! (Even my boyfriend and family!)

    I have similar stats. I'm 5' 9.5" and I just turned 50.

    SW 220
    CW 177
    GW 160 (maybe 150 we'll see when I get to 160 how I feel)

    I got serious about losing weight in September. I've lost 31 of the 43 lbs since then. I joined a gym and I workout 5 days a week. I have cut way back on sugar and carbs and I log all of my food. I usually eat back about half my exercise calories. Would love some more friends along this journey.

    Hi everyone! I started at 210, and hovering between 135-140 now. I've only lost 8lbs total in the last year, so I guess I'm actually in maintenance. I do want to be firmly in the 130-135 range but won't drop my calories any lower. You can do it! One day, one meal, one minute at a time.

    Hi, MissChellyAnne. I 'm also in your same goal range... started at 250 & am now at 180. Looking to be 150ish. I have some tips that really worked (especially learning about leptin levels which I had never even heard of) but now I'm a tad stuck in a plateau, so I'll be looking for more tips (and be sure to share 'em when I find them!)
