    I'm a bit bigger than that...5'9, 247. I started at 289 though back at the end of February. So yes it does work if you stick with it. The biggest thing for me was portion control. Once I started really sticking to serving sizes and watching my calorie intake it clicked. I have hit a plateau lately so I'm trying to switch it up to get back losing again. Good luck my friend!

    It really does work. Log in every day. Even the bad ones. Logging and reading others stories helps you stay motivated. There will be hard days and the first couple of weeks are definitely tough but don't give up. I've lost 31 lbs so far and I've never been able to do that before. Good luck!

    I am taller than you at 6'4 but started at 225lbs. I have had great success withe the help of this site since I began in June. I am down over 30lbs and 1.5 pant sizes. Counting calories in and out has been the #1 thing that has helped me to lose the weight. Sticking to the calorie plan and exercising a lot is what has allowed me to lose over 30lbs so quickly. Add me as a friend if you'd like to see my diary or ask questions....

    My name is Rain.

    5'10" ... Started at 223 pounds last summer.

    I cleaned up my diet (no more soda, fried foods, or sugary foods).

    I started walking about 2 miles a day. I was dropping 15 pounds a month (eating 1200-1500 calories per day).

    I'm now 170 and still kicking *kitten*. I've graduated from walking to jogging and am training for a 10k. (I hate walking and running, but I have so much energy I have to burn it somewhere).

    As long as you stay motivated you'll succeed! The people here are great to lean on when you need help.

    Kick it's *kitten*, then post the photos!!!

    It helps tracking your food sooooo much. I started 195 thirty days ago and its taken me to 186 in 30 days. you have to find a workout routine and stick with it. Cardio after weights helps too.

    When i started this i was 268 lbs (April 2011) and i must say that keeping track of your calories is the way to go. Burning more calories than you consume per day is THE ONLY WAY to lose weight. Gimmicks, fads , etc. are nonsense and we all know it. stay away from processed foods and put in 30 min of exercise (of any kind) and you WILL see results. 237 lbs today (31 lbs in 4 months). it's hard to keep up the work i know but the results are amazing and you will love yourself more and more!! keep it up!

    6 ft started at 288lbs on March 3rd 2011, am now 223lbs. Combine keeping track of the calories with exercise and it works.

    I'm 5'10 and started here at 211, although I'm sure I weighed more before I started trying. I am down 17.5 pounds in 3 months. I feel like I could be doing better if I worked a little harder too. So yes, I would say this site works.
