So I am looking for some friends on here who share the same goals and are similar to me. Obviously someone who is serious too or can help support and motivate me as I would do the same.

I am 5'6

    I just wanted to pop in and tell you that you can do it! I am about 5'6" and I was 266 when I started. It's been almost 2 years and I've got about 20 more lbs until my goal weight.

    Good luck and hang in there. Don't give up!
