Hello!

I'm fairly new to this and I'm looking for friends and support for those who are around the same weight as I am. I don't like to admit it but I'm struggling at 248. I did add some great people so far but none seem to be at the same level as I am and it would be great to have support from those who are around where I am. :)

    Thanks! You're too kind! I was the opposite, I gained all this weight in a year from being laid off and quitting smoking. I'm hoping to reach my goal of 180. (I'm 6'0, so I'm hella tall.) haha.

    I started this journey where you are although I am "hella short" :smiley: add me if you like. I post probably too much. This has become my facebook haha. I am currently 178. would like to get to 140 but taking a day/meal at a time. You can do it!

    Feel free to add me. I'm currently right at 314, so if anyone is in the same boat as you, it would be me. Was at 240 about 3 years ago, but a wife and two kids has not been kind to me.

    Feel free to add me! 6 ft even and 275.8. Lost 42 lbs in 3 months, so maybe I can be a role model. :3
