Hello everyone, I have been with MFP for awhile now and am currently looking for friends who also have 200+ lbs to lose.

Currently, I am 5 foot 4 and weigh 347 lbs. My goal is to reach 120lbs making it so I have 221-222 lbs to lose.

I know it would realistically take 2years to reach my goal weight but figure companions along the way will make the time feel shorter ^^

    Congrats to all of you on deciding to get started. That is one of the most difficult parts. I had 180+ to lose when I started and now working on the last 40 or so and would love to help/support all of you in any way I can. This thing is 80% mindset and only 20% mechanics. You CAN do this! :)

    I'm part of a group called 350+ pounds support for men and women. We do monthly challenges, and just generally support each other. You can search for it in the groups sections. I love this group because we can all relate to one another. Feel free to friend me to. I have an open diary. :)

    I sent you a request. My current weight is about 358, starting weight was 400. So I definitely have over 200 to lose!

    Hi, I started a week ago at my highest of 343.
    My last doctor visit was enough to scare me straight. Besides I hurt everywhere. 😩
    I could use some friends, feel free to add me.
