I am 5'3 and my highest weight (in 2006) was 275. I am now at 234 with my first major goal being to get under 200 lbs (seriously - 199.9 will totally do).
Feel free to add me, if you want. I am sure we could all use the added motivation!0 -

Hello
I am starting AGAIN at 246. I was once 270 and lost 50 lbs to 220. After not working it very well for the last 2.5 months, I am back to 246.
YOU are NOT alone at all, at least the 2 of us are in the exact same position.
This app works I promise, just follow it and be honest with it, and YOU WILL SUCCEED.

Hiya. I am starting today at 273 and any help and motivation by way of this would be gratefully received. It's great to know that I am not alone. Good luck everyone. xx0

I was exactly that weight when I started... 237 pounds. I'm trying not to see the massive task ahead, breaking it up into trying for a weight loss every week, however small.
If you'd like another friend, please feel free to add me.0 -

Hi i'm 5"10 and weighed in on the 11th of february at 232 pounds... don't know if I have lost weight since then because I don't own my own scales yet but I am definitely in the same boat0

No you are not alone, so we can motivate each other. The only problem I have is controling my appetite, and my love for sweets. If you have any suggestions please let me know. I know We can do it, my weight loss goal is to loose 50 lbs to start with.0

Started last May at Approx 294, probably higher, I'm a big build guy so although I had a huge gut I kinda carried it off and no one ever realised I was that heavy.
Keep going, we all fall,stumble and trip on the way.....
if you get up and keep going forward you're still moving!0 -
I am over 200 as well. I kept a little weight after each of my 4 pregnancies, and then found myself in a happy contented marriage. We enjoy eating out and I am NOT into extreme fitness! In fact, right now I'm recovering from extensive foot surgery. I started using MFP a week ago to count calories, but I'm only able to walk slowly and do stretching exercises. I can only go up from here, right?0

I am over 250 lbs currently and I am also looking for some motivation. I would like to lose 100 lbs! It sounds so daunting, but it is nice to know that I am not the only one. I am not new to the "trying to lose weight" game, but I am hoping that by tracking my calories and trying to eat sensibly, I will actually get my weight down and develop some lifestyle changes. If anyone has some advice to help me get started, PLEASE share! Thanks!0

I am new to this website, Hopefully It can keep me on point to meet my goals ! Starting weight at 239 pds, I have a very tough road ahead of me to get healthy. Good Luck to everyone who is trying to shed off the pounds . Hopefully we can all be a support system for each other ! It's defiantly hard to lose weight alone.. I find myself struggling with not having the support or someone to help motivate me !0
