SW- 346lbs
CW -306lbs
GW- 240lbs (for now lol)

I started my journey in August 2016. I struggled through the holidays a little bit. But have been back on track and more committed than ever! I read these posts almost everyday and get so much motivation from them! I'm 7 lbs away from my first goal which is to be under 300 lbs for the first time since high school!

    Congratulations!! I started at 271, current 215. I get stuck it seems. I was stuck in the 220s, then finally the 2 teens. I am stuck there again. My goal, i guess, is 175. I got a lot more exercise when I worked, but lost that job. Now I try to walk every day.

    If your stuck you just need to re adjust your calorie intake then give it a week or so n the scale will go down you only really plateau if you end up eating at maintenance
