    Hello there,

    HW: 266lbs/ 120kg
    CW: 251lbs/ 114kg
    STG: 220lbs/ 100kg
    LTG: 160lbs/ 73kg
    5'5 165cm
    35 years old

    Exercise goals: getting off the couch/desk basically, walking more, love dancing so it might be good to dance as a workout, doing some strength training with my own weight.

    Diet: omnivore, need to ditch carbs, at least keep them below 100 grams/day. Have a slow metabolism, lost 6kgs/13lbs in 4 months eating 1450 calories on average.

    I'm a woman from Istanbul Turkey. Never been slim or at least normal in my life. I weighed 78kgs/170lbs in college, best weight in my adult life but Turks are so obsessed with weight, even then the comments I received from people around me were horrible, it made me think I was already a mess so I kept gaining, thus let myself get to this state.
    I'm married with no kids. I'm owned by a cat named Sipsi.

    Hello all! I've used the MFP app for years, but never posted to the forums. I love how supportive this community is! I have struggled with my weight for years and have yo-yoed alot the past year and a half. I want to get back down to my low weight and hopefully reach my goal soon after. If you have similar stats I would love to add you so we can keep up with each other's progress!

    Height: 5'5
    HW: 190
    CW: 177
    LW: 152
    GW: 135

    We're not close in age, but the rest is pretty darn close:
    Height: 5'4"
    HW: 193.4
    CW: 174.4
    STG: 150 (intermediate goals of 170, then 160)

    CW: 140
    GW: 130
    Height: 5' 4.5"
    Age: 45

    I like to do HIIT workouts or circuit training. Have done P90x and other things as well. ( that would kill me now) Thinking about trying 21 day fix....
    Want my clothes to fit better and I like to be in shape it makes me not feel so old! Ha ha.

    I like to eat good food and that includes carbs! I can't get rid of them! I have three kids (2 in college) and three french bulldogs. I have been blessed to be married for 25 years to a man that has never gained weight once in our lives together!! (which is slightly annoying!) HAHA
