I am way overweight...about 230 lbs. I've picked up those last 30 in a little over a year. I know that I am fat and it's hurting me, so I am starting this weight loss journey today. I am going to try to keep track of what I eat and what I do for exercise. But I need help starting all of this. Please, I need friends to help me along this journey. I had friends on here years ago, but most are no longer active. Friend me. My name is Kimberlee, 53.

    I'll request you too! I've lost 55 pounds since the beginning of the year, with about another 20 to go. This site is amazing and really works if you put the work in and use the tools they give you. Good luck!!

    I understand what you are going through. I salute the step you have taken towards getting healthier. I sent you a friend request. I started this journey back in January and I have lost 133 Lbs and have another 130 to go. I was a whopping 378 Lbs when I started. Lots of people tried to get me to do something about my weight prior to that to no avail. I would not do anything about my horrible situation until I was ready. I am now 245 Lbs and feel much better about myself. You can do that too!

    Hi, I've just restarted today. I used to be on MFP about 2 years ago and lost loads of weight, but I wasn't eating proper food and so I put it all back on. I weigh about the same as you (not had my first weigh in yet) and I've been receiving no end of comments from my family about my weight!
