    I deleted my last account after a misunderstanding with someone on social media. They were from a fitness community I love/hate. I think they didn't understand what I have to go though, So i want to start new with friends who share similar journeys like me.

    I am 5 ft tall, 266.6 lbs. I used to weigh 335.4. My goal is 130 lbs. I have about 140 lbs to go.

    It would be great to have support from people like me :)

      Sorry you had a bad experience! Glad you didn't let it stop you! Welcome back! I have over 100 lbs to lose too. I'd love to share some motivation every day!

      I am currently 234lbs (my heaviest so far), im 5'9" and would like to lose about 70lbs. So far i have unsuccessfully tried slimming world, juice plus and various gyms. Now i feel ready to hit it big time. I have been going to the gym 3 times a week since january and had my measurements redone at the weekend (lost 2 inches on waist, thighs and hips) and now i want to take control of my diet as the scales dont seem to be changing all that much. I downloaded myfitnesspal today (4th or 5th time ive used it), normally i stop after a day or 2 as i get too obsessed with feeling hungry, but i want to focus on kepping my calorie intake down and logging my weekly exercise

      I hate the feeling of hunger too. I am trying to eat less but not deprive myself :)
