    I lost my whole reply to you. But we are very very similar. I sent you a friend request. I’m 45 and 192 lbs with a goal of 150. I’ve been on this site for many many years and had great success. I was working 4 pounds of my goal weight when log happened, got divorced and lost focus. I was a runner, completed 7 half marathons and would love to find that love again. I’d really like to encourage each other toward our goals. Feel feee to message me anytime, too

    I am 28 and have over a hundred pounds to lose. Early 20s weight was 180. One motorcycle accident later I'm 315. My goal is 180 again. I'll be your friend! I need some motivation as well. I'm brand new to this account. I tried weigh watchers, but it didn't seem to help me at all. So my doctor told me I should give this premium version a try. I can say this, it's a lot less expensive and I've found more people on here who struggle hard like me. Sometimes extreme optimism just makes me worse. Dx

    @strezz_iz_my_middlename I will add you also. We are very similar. I have been on and off this app for several years, hovering in the 190's for about the last 3. I am not necessarily worried about a scale number, I just want to feel healthy again. I am working on logging all my food, making healthier choices and getting more exercise (mostly walking). I am hoping it with help with the aches and pains as I creep through my 40's!
