    I am 289, working on getting down to the average weight for my height (5'3). That's around 150 pounds to lose.

    Dawnfqpm- You're doing great! Congratulations on losing so much weight. My dad and mum have the same problem wih the insulin and metformin making it hard to lose weight. But- they have also been able to decrease the amount of medication they need. Hang in there!! You really have come so far and I'm sure there are lots of things you can do now that you couldn't before. When I start to get into a funk, I will change my calorie goal to "maintain current weight", which makes a difference for me psychologically- I don't see the red negative numbers anymore :)

    I'm also looking for friends. I'm new around here (3 weeks in) but not to weight loss. I've lost and gained the same 100 pounds twice. Only this last time I gained an extra 30 :/

    I'm currently at 317 and my goal weight is 145. I've got lots of work to do and then plan to use MFP to maintain it for the rest of my life. I want the motivation of friends to keep me focused.
