    Hi I am Courtney. I'm 34 yrs old and have health problems due to a car accident. So therefore, I really need to lose 105 pounds so that my hips and back stop hurting. I workout but I wasn't losing any weight. The docs told me to eat more so I can lose. They said my body is in starvation mode so I'm trying to revamped my metabolism. Please add me.

    I'm 23, 5'7, and I have a LOT of weight to lose. I've lost juuuust over 10lbs so far, but I'd love to have some lady friends with similar goals so we can work together :)

    (Men are also welcome! I just wanted to to specify my own goals so that I can work with women in the same boat as me)

    I've got a lot of weight to lose also and would love to have some friends who have the same goals. I am new to MFP.

    Hi Everyone!! I am 31 (in 10 days) and need to lose about 120 for a start. My weight has always been an issue and at one point I weighed over 400 lbs (I'm 5'6). I lost a bunch of weight a few years ago and didn't realize it had started creeping back up until about a year ago. I started MFP for the first time then but lost all motivation and interest. I stepped on a scale 10 days ago and realized that I am back up to 292. I cried for about an hour then stopped throwing my personal pity party and started looking for something I could really get into and lose the weight. I have been following Chris Powell's Carb Cycling and Extreme Weight Loss workout videos on Youtube. In 10 days I have lost 5.5 pounds. I hope to keep the momentum going. Good Luck to all of us that we stick with the complete change of life. Because this is what it is all about, not a diet or working out, but changing your life for the better.

    I too have osteoarthritis in my knees; particularly my right one is very bad. Had a bad car accident in hs and shattered more than 1/2 of it. Has pained me ever since. I find i am way more ambitious than my knee is. Its really slowing me down. Frustrating!!! Trying to be patient with myself. Not my strongest quality. Lol

    Hi nalley,

    I know your story - its mine!! I weighed myself in Jan and was 251lbs. I'm 33 (was 32 then :) ) and I'm 5ft 4.5" - I've lost 15lbs so far and really want this!

    I completely agree - for me it's not just lose weight it's changing my life for a better healthier one that will continue after the 'just losing weight' bit

    Hey! I'm 44, and 5'2" and have 100+ to lose. I have been using MFP/Advocare for the past 6 weeks and have lost 20lbs. I love using this app to track what I eat, personally I have to track or I get off track.

    Hi every one. I started my journey after being laid up with 4 shoulder surgeries in 5 years. When I started I was 275 lbs. I m 58, and started by walking a block. I m now @ 203 lbs and I have kept it off for a year. Now, I am ready to lose the rest.
