    Hi! I'm Nissa. I'm 5'4" and 163lbs. I'm most comfortable around 135-140lbs. I lost 20lbs about 2 years ago and slowly gained it all back. Well, I did it once, I can do it again...

    Hello, I'm Diana. I am 4'11" and 160lbs., which is way too high for someone as short as me. I've been "trying" to lose weight since I was about 13, when I wasn't really fat, but in the past 21 years my insecurities have completely taken over my life and I went from thinking I was fat to actually being very fat. I use food as a coping mechanism and I've recently realized how much sugar affects my digestion and I am going to avoid eating pastries, which are my biggest cravings when stress takes over. Good luck everyone!

    Hello, all! I am Bethany. I am about 5'7" tall, currently at 205lbs and 14 months postpartum. I was around 180-185 pre pregnancy, so my immediate goal would be to get back to that and then work my way down. It's been incredibly hard to start, though. While I hate the way my body feels and acts right now with the excess weight, it's hard to get to the point of being able to even get started. I'm sure that struggling with PPD isn't help me, either. :smile: I heard about this group while listening to the amazing SYSK podcast, and thought why not look in to it and see what it's all about! Will it give me the boost I finally need? I hope so!

    Hey all, I'm Carissa. I love that we have a safe place to talk about difficult stuff! I'm almost 5'9" and weigh 203. I'm down from 217, so something is working! This app has been a great help; simply recording and seeing what's in the food I'm eating has made me more mindful about what and how much I'm eating. The steps counter has motivated me to move more too!

    Sorry everyone, I'm pretty metric in Australia. 188cm (6'3"??) and 110kg. I'm a tall guy put would love to sit below 90kg. It's been around 10yrs since I've been there and want to say that again. Just hit 30yrs old so Now is a good time to sort this out!

    For what it's worth, I'm not a huge fan of counting calories. I'm back at taekwondo which is more than enough exercise and decided to cut out as much processed food as possible and just leave in pretty much meat and vegetables and some fruit. I always feel great doing it but always end up falling off the wagon (All good is delicious!!)

    Hey I'm Kevin.

    Im 5'9" and 178...the lowest I've been in years! I'm working to get to 165, which I used to think was impossible before calorie counting. Really I just want my body fat to be low enough that I have a defined six pack.

    So I finally bought a scale and faced the numbers: I'm 160cm (5'3") and 62.5 kg. Would ultimately like to lose 10kg. Time to get to work!

    I'm 5'7 and weigh 199lbs. I gained 70lbs while I was pregnant, which I so regret. I've lost almost 50lbs but have been really struggling for two years to get rid of the last 20-30 lbs. I'd love to get to 165 or under and maintain it.

    My name is Aaron, I am 5' 9" tall, 45 years old, and currently 186 lbs, down from 213 lbs heaviest known weight. My ultimate goal is to get to a "normal" BMI of 165 lbs.

    To everyone just getting started, YOU CAN DO THIS!!! Some basic advice that really helped me: eliminate processed sugars, try to not drink your calories, ease into increasing your exercise a little at a time (don't enter any marathons on your first day

    Hey! I'm Matt and I'm 5'5" and 151 lbs as of today. Im trying to put on some weight but it's tough for me to do with such a high metabolism. My job also requires me to do a lot physically as well so it is a challenge.

    My name is Bob. I am 67 yo, 5'-10" and 248 lb. I was recently diagnosed with coronary artery disease (basically partial blockage of my coronary arteries with "plaque"). This condition is vey common and cannot be reversed, however it can be controlled through diet and excercise. I have learned through many years of trying to loose weight that I need to set achievable weight loss goals and up my excercise a lot. So, I have starting to walk 1-2 hours every day. I listen to SYSK and the time flies. My goal is to loose 10% of my body weight (25 lbs.)

    Don't give up! Make it as fun as possible. Mfp has helped me a lot by staying motivated by talking to others or at least listening.

    Mark – I've been fighting through a month-long plateau myself. It sucks! While goals are important & results are rewarding, try to remember this is about learning new habits with food & fitness for the long term. You can do it!
