Girls over 200

Hi. I started in September at 222lbs. I have lost 35 so far. So around 6 months at about 6lbs a month. Could have done better but had some days where I simply didn't care. I think those days happen to even the most desiplined from time to time. My goal weight is about 160-150. As long as the trend is downward I'm good. Would love to be maintaining by September though if possible. Good luck on your goals you can definitely do this. Take it one day at a time. Don't set yourself up with unrealistic expectations is my advice. Plan your meals in advanced.

I am 5'8" and 230. You are not alone! Hey, we didn't get to this point in a day or two, so we won't lose it -- or ruin it -- in a short time, either. My first goal is to get below 200 (even if it's 199!). Then, I want to get to 180. I actually liked how I looked and felt at 180, even though I was overweight at the time. My end goal is 160 or 165.

I was around 255 260 when I started back in 2011. With calorie counting and exercise, i got down to 175 by sept of 2012. It was an amazing transformation, and once I got into the swing of things, it was really pretty easy. To be honest, I never did hit my goal weight. I got pregnant (thanks to the weight loss) and side tracked since then. Just got back in the game this past January, and working back towards my original goal. Goodluck on your journey.

Hi I currently weight 260lb...(I know yickes) and im looking for some motivations or success stories from women I can relate to. Also I would like to know how long did it take you to get to your goal weight if you have?

i started 3 weeks ago at 250 have lost 8 pounds so far the biggest changer was obviously started to exercise when i never did and try to drink more water less soda and avoid bread and potatoes when can and eat more veggies

I started out last year at 247 (my highest ever) and got down to 207 by October. But I totally got lazy and stopped exercising for a few months so now I got back up to 229. Now I'm back on track and have lost 6 lbs since I've refocused.

About 5 years ago I started at 200 and got down to 145. I got tired of "dieting" and gained it all back plus 40 more. I'm starting again. I weigh 241 now. My first goal is 199.9. Next goal is 160. I'll see at that point what I feel like. Glad to find some company!

In April of 2012 I started at 238 and lost 50 lbs in the next 6 months. Like someone else above I never actually got to my goal weight. I had some medical stuff and then I got pregnant and it took a while to make it back with an infant that seemed to never sleep and post pardum, Etc. I just started back about 3 weeks ago and am down 10 lbs so far. The first few are easy though. I did the couch to 5k program last time and am starting that over as well. It just takes patience!

Last Thursday was the day I decided I need to change not only to lose weight, but forever. I am currently 228 lbs and working on changing the ways I eat, and feel about food. I would love to have friends on this app that motivate me!! I have always been bigger then my friends, I struggled my whole life. My goal is to get to 180, and from there possibly 160. Iv never weighed less than that as an adult. I want to be healthy, I want to have more energy, I want my 7 year old daughter to be proud and not ashamed. Please add me, I can use all the help I can get!!

I started back at the beginning of December, and have lost nearly 60 pounds since then. My starting weight was 283, and my current weight is about 225.

Right now, my goal is to lose 10 pounds a month until I get to 175 (so for the next 5 months), after which point I will be happy with a 5 pound a month loss until I get to my goal (for now) weight of 141.5. However, I am not stuck to that number (it literally was set based on "wouldn't it be cool to lose half my weight"), so if I look/feel/am content at a higher weight, then so be it.

Best of luck! Before I began, I didn't think I was as strong as I have learned I am over the past several months. If I can do it, you can do it!

I've lost 143lbs here so far but am still in the 200s and would love more friends in their 200s to keep me company along the way.

I started off at 240 lbs middle of January, currently down to 218. I log every single thing I eat. I know some are very strict about weighing food, but I don't. I pretty much "guesstimate" and get as close as possible. It's worked so far! Plus I work out 3-4 days a week. Cardio on the elliptical for about 20-30 minutes and a tiny but of weight training. It's actually easier then I thought! I'm steadily losing 1-2 lbs a week. If I can do it, anyone can definitely do it!!

2 years ago I finished the insanity program still eating whatever i wanted

I'm over 200 pounds feel free to add me everyone always lookig for friends on this new journey

Starting weight 230 right now 223 ....

I started in 2012 at an official starting weight of 290, and am now in the 190's. I hit 199 in January 2015, and spend the rest of the year bouncing around that range (I hit 190 in the autumn, but haven't gotten any lower). I'm looking to get to 165 hopefully by the end of July.
