    Hello! I’ve started over again to try and lose weight..hoping to lose 50 pounds and I really don’t want to quit (so tired of giving up, and so tired of being fat). Hoping to meet people on here who can help me through the tough days, when all I want to do is find a burger and a cookie

    Hello! I’m not sure how to join this group as I never have tried to before, I searched online but didn’t have much luck, I am really interested in joining the group tho! I am 22 and weigh 295 I have lost 25 pounds since January 8. I want to be able to do all of the active things that I don’t always feel physically capable of doing. I don’t like talking to my friends of family about how I’m trying to lose weight but would love for likeminded individuals to keep my accountable! Please feel free to add me!

    Hi Everyone,
    I too sent a request to join the group. I am also 27 years old and over 200 lbs. (210 lbs to be exact) . This has been my highest weight.
    When I was younger I was very active I played non stop basketball and even into college I tried to continue my good habit of occasionally working out. Now I no longer have that custom of working out but still eat the same as I used to ... which is bad... after a few health scares and constant digestion problems I really feel it’s time I get focused again on my health.
    I need the support and motivation. I feel I already know what I need to do just have to do it.
    Hopefully I can join in on the struggle because #thestruggleisreal

    Hey all. So being completely new to a support community I’m interested to hear how everyone is trying to reach their goals. I started with weight lifting and high protein diets, then moved to whole paleo foods (but kept eating too much natural sugars), which led me to Whole30. But I find that it’s so hard to stay on Whole30 and still be social. So, after reading a lot online, I decided to do an adapted keto diet which keeps paleo/W30 whole food principles but focuses on the ratios of macros I’m consuming, and still allows me to eat out and be social. My body took to this kind of keto like breathing!! I felt amazing!! Didn’t even get the keto flu, which I’m still surprised about. But my real struggle is with working out. I cannot seem to find the motivation. I’ll work out for a week or a few days, and then go weeks or months of doing nothing. Anyone have any tips on finding the motivation to be active?? It’s just a hard to move with all this weight.

    Yes, it will either be in your notifications in your phone Community--->click Bell icon at top of screen or you can join directly from the page.

    It is sometimes temperamental with requests, so if you requested and you haven't been added, please PM me and I'll help you. :blush:

    I just started MFP in Feb. I was 244. I am now down to 234, and trying to break 200. I’d love to join! The last time I saw a number lower than 200 was 10 years ago.

    Hi! I'd love to join but I've looked all over the site and can't find instructions on how to join groups or even how to find groups like this. I'm in the 240s and would love to be way under 200 eventually but definitely under the 2 this year. Would love some kindred spirits.
