    Hey.. I'm 33, 5'8" 230 and started somewhere around 275. I have been hovering around 230 give or take 5 pounds for ages and feeling like I'm never going to get below 225.. haha. My goal is somewhere around 160-170 but I really have no idea what any of that even looks or feels like. My primary goal right now is 199, baby! Anyone feel free to add.. support=success in my books. Rachel :)

    I'm 5'5'' and I started at 290, and am down almost 15 pounds. I actually love being a curvy lady, I'd just like a wider selection of clothes at stores lol (also that whole healthy thing, you know) Feel free to add me! :)

    I'm 36, 5'11" and started at 250. I got down to 208 on my own and then joined MFP. I'm now down 15 more pounds (but I only record my weight loss on Saturdays so it shows 12 pounds lost) so that puts me at 193 currently. My goal weight is 155 but I am very small boned so that number is not unrealistic for me. Feel free to add me if you want. Also, I haven't posted any large pictures of myself because I can't look at them without crying. Silly, I know but hopefully I will post some next week.

    I was around the exact weight when I was your age and stayed that weight for til I was 26. Glad your trying to make the change now. I wish I would have started earlier.

    I'm 25, a bit taller at 5'8, and started at 226 last August, but have a a highest weight of 260, not included while pregnant. I'm down to 189 now, and hoping to shed a bit more, aiming for between 155 and 165, but not too worried about the number on that scale. Mostly, I just want to be healthy, fit, and strong :) A bit of lean would be nice too, but I've got a viking frame, so I don't really see lean in my future haha. Anyhow, feel free to add me :)

    I'm around the same, although a lil taller. I'm 24, 5'7". I started out at 233 with a goal of reaching 140. Currently I'm 227, which is up a couple of pounds from last week but I'm hoping some of that is muscle I've gained :)

    Hi! I'm 5'6", and I started my journey at 216. I am down to 203 now. I have two kids and at my heaviest I was around 227. My goal is to have a healthy BMI, which for my height is 150ish. So - that is where I am headed. In the past I have been a chronic yo-yo'er with my weight, between 180 and 215. But - this is where I am hoping to end that - and find a way to lose and keep it off.

    I am turning 30 this June - and in honor of my birthday I'm running a half marathon. Mostly, just to prove I can.

    Feel free to add me. :)

I lost 8lbs not even realizing it.. when I realized I decided to do something more to increase weight loss so joined mfp and since I have only loss 2lbs but I am determined to to get to at least 140lbs. I want to like what I see in the mirror again. I love me but dont like my weight it has my self esteem very low. And I could use all the encouragment I can get as well so feel free to add me... we can encourageeach other.
