    I am 37 and at my all time high of 263. I can never keep motivated with my friends and family who always bail on me. I am ready to see what other women are going through and help find my place on a team. I know I can do because I have done it before. I said I never get back over 200 pounds but here I am. I'm ready to take on the challenge again and keep it off.

    I tried to request but think my app messed up somehow. I’m looking for support in a journey to healthy weight loss since I’ve never had luck on the healthy part. I’m over 200 lbs and have been for years and I am really looking for a way to move easily again and use my body in more productive ways. Having a support network would really help. Hope everyone is doing well and staying motivated!

    I can do this! I've broken the barrier before, 5 years ago. Then I slowly went up 60 more pounds :(
    I started one year ago Jan 2017 at 262, and lost 30 pounds in 4/5 months. Nothing has happened since then and I am sitting at 230. So ready to keep losing! Thanks for this group!

    Please anyone feel free to add me as a friend.
    :blush: I keep my diary open to the public to help me stay accountable... even on the bad days!

    I've struggled with Onederland my entire life and I'm ready to break that barrier again. I've lost and gained so many times but this past fall and holiday season I gained a bunch yet again. I have a knee that's out right now that's hindering any running or lifting but I think by logging consistently and losing some of this weight I will hopefully be back to it soon! I am at 221 today, higher than I've been in a few years, so I'm trying to stay positive instead of beating myself up and think this support group is a great idea!!

    I'm in. This is exactly what I have been looking for. I'm 36, 5'7" and currently 250ish lbs. (My scale at home is not super accurate). I started at 269 lbs in mid October and was officially down to 257.4 at the beginning of December according to my InBody scans. I am working with a personal trainer one day a week and usually get to the gym 4-5 times and week. I'm tracking calories and have increased my protein and lowered my carbs (although this hasn't been easy). I'm looking for a group to help encourage and keep me on track.

    I requested to be included in your group. I started MFP on 8/15/15 at 341.8 lbs. I have lost 125+ lbs (on my own-no meds or surgery; just determination, strength, and courage. I have been hoovering around 215 lbs for the past year and I would to get below 200 lbs for once and for all. I have have weighed 300-350 lbs for 20+ years of my life so, even though it's just a number on the scale, I would love to see below 200 lbs. It would be nice to be in a group with similar interest/goals.
