Hi! My name is Anya. I am from Russia and I am extremely overweight. So happy to have found this site. Thank you to one of my fb friends.
I am looking for some friends here to motivate and support each other. .Someone with similar aims and understanding what such a big girl like me can be going through. :)
My weight now is 308lbs (I am very tall), lost 40lbs already before I came here.

Sorry for any grammar mistakes, english is not my native language.

    Welcome! MFP is the greatest! MFP has such a sense of community & i love that. You'll love it. I also started this journey of needing to lose 100+ and i've lost 60 in 7 months. MFP is a huge part of my success. If you stick with exercising and eating right you'll be amazing. Please feel free to add me if you need a friend!

    Just joined today. I was surprised at the amount of positive emails and support sent out. I have 80 lbs to lose and I have to admit it's pretty daunting...but when I read the blogs and realize that there's others out there , like me struggling and achieving weight lose, its really inspiring. Looking forward to hearing from everyone throughout our journey!:smile:

    Hi I have 116lbs to lose all in trying to concentrate on my first 80! I have been on this site just over 2 weeks and think I would have given up without it, it is so helpful! Good Luck :-)
