I have a long way ahead of me. My start weight was 335.6, on March 8, 2011.

Today I weigh 306.6. 28 lbs gone. Yeah!

I am only 5', 41 yrs old. My suggested weight is 128 (on the high side at that).

At this rate, it will take a few years to get 200+ off. I CAN and WILL do it!

    Congratulations!!! 28 pounds is a great victory!!! You CAN do it!!! No it wont be easy and there will be days that you just want to quit because you feel like everything youre doing is not getting you anywhere, but I want you to know that even when you CANT see it, you ARE transforming even if it;s something as small as noticing a lump that you've never seen before....your collar bone, or a rib, or a hip bone. These "little things" add up to big achievements. You've come to the right place for support. MFP will help you LOTS and everyone on here is struggling, just like you.....just like me. Good Luck on your journey :)

Anyone else who'd like to add me is welcome too. I see so many of you have lost incredible amounts of weight! So awesome!! So hang in there, we will DO this!!!
