I started at around 385. I currently weigh about 150, and have maintained that for a year.
It is not easy, and I still have some major challenges. But it can be done.8 -
Hello everyone! I'm relatively new to this site/app. I'm liking it so far The thing that has been most intriguing to me has been the community and message boards. It never occurred to me that would help, but I think it will!
My weight hasn't fluctuated very much over the years - just steadily risen from 250 (18) to now over 300 lbs (at 30). Highest ever probably near 320 this spring. I'm sitting at 305 after starting on this site at 310 about a month ago.
So inspired by everyone here! I feel great knowing I'm not alone in this fight for my health!5 -
I started at 400 and down to 370 - its a struggle but that's why I am here

I'm at 282, down from a high of 320 and ready to finally get myself down to 140, so a loooong ways to go. I'm happy to support any and all who need3

Spent the last 14 months sitting on my butt, as that was the only way to heal and resolve some issues with my left leg and large toe. Suffice it to say packed on all the weight I had lost following my wife on her WW journey. Was not a member but she was my resource. Found it difficult to wrap my head around this and a friend turned me on to this app. Never counted calories before. Always just managed to “do it”. Am loving the app. Down #7 first week. I reweighed my self a second time as I could not believe it. Also intentionally back off between 300-550 Calories a day. Know this will not be a constant but off to a good start.1

Forgot to mention. Had regained 50 lbs I had lost putting back to 326. Lost only 4 lbs from June 1 to July 12. WW was not serving me well.0

When I hit 300 I told myself somethings got to give! I went totally vegan and lasted 6 weeks. lost 30lbs and felt great. but it was to much of a hassle so I went back to eating the same way, just tried less of it. That was 5 years ago. I stopped using the app and have hovered around 285 since. Reading your stories has really inspired me and I'm ready to start again!0

From 2014 till 2019 I went from 304 to 250. It's been an up and down mountain, but so worth it. I still have 70 lbs to lose in this phase and I'm hoping to meet that goal before 2020.2
