in Introduce Yourself
Hi,
I have about 150 pounds to lose and am looking for friends to give & receive support along the way. I don't care if you have a little or a lot to lose (or just wanting to get in better shape) as long as you're supportive, I will support you.
About me:
Weight: 297 pounds. Female. 5'3.
I am getting married soon (July 17th). My wedding dress is getting hard to zip up, eep! I sweat way too easily. I have a bunch of weight related health issues that will improve just by weight loss/eating healthier.

My fiance and I will be trying to have a baby after we are married. Between that and all my health issues, I really need to lose weight.

I have been down this path before and lost around 30 pounds each time but then for different reasons would stop. I don't plan on stopping this time. I need to do this.

Please feel free to add me. I will accept them, probably once I get home from work tonight. Thank you!

    I'm totally down to help you. I'm 5'11 and 277 on a good day :-( . I switch between a size 16 and 18 dress. I also made some progress a while back in 2013, lost 40 and again in 2014, lost 30. It has been very hard to get back on the healthy train after 2014 because of the death of my older brother, but this time I'm ready, and would love to support and be supported.
