Hi Kim, I'm Penny I too started at a very similar weight as you and Like you had no idea I had got so big. I have been doing WW online and MFP since last September. Both are really good in helping you eat healthier and being accountable, but it also helps to have friends who understand its not always that easy and can help…

Hi, where is home? Anyone is welcome to add me I am in the east midlands

Mansfield UK

Hi I have also got over 100 lbs to lose. started needing to lose 60kg or 132 lbs. I am down by 20kg (43) so still a long way to go. Always happy to have more friends who understand this is a long road with a few ups and downs.

Hi there. I started back in September last year with over 10 stones to lose. I still have 7 to go so I am in a similar situation as you. You can do it and MFP is great for keeping you on track and loads of friendly helpful support too. Feel free to add me if you wish. Good luck, you can do it. :)

Hi, its so easy to put the weight on and just not realise it until you see yourself in a picture or video. You are do it. Feel free to add me

Have a great holiday and hope you don't gain any weight back :)

Hi and welcome I am in Nottinghamshire

Hi and welcome. I have very bad knees and poor health but you can still lose the weight without exercise. As you lose the weight gentle exercises, even sat down can really help. Happy to be friends and help support and motivate

Hi Carolyne, Its not easy losing the weight, I like you have been on and off diets all my life but now I think this time I can do it. I am very happy to be friends and give help and support.

Hi Sara Your health sounds just like mine but I am a lot older than you. I started out at BMI of 60+.Like you the fibro, OA and other health problems have stopped me exercising but any movement helps. I have lost 20kg in the last 7 months with just diet so it can be done. I still have over half my weight to lose . I low I…

hi there and welcome. MFP is great for helping you lose the weight and making supportive friends too. You are very welcome to add me Good luck

Hi and welcome. The community is great here and there are a lot of people who will help and support you. Feel ree to add me too.

Hi That's a great weight loss in 2 weeks. I hope all goes well with your gastric bypass operation, I am trying to avoid that myself with just diet. Keep up the great work

Hi I have fibro, chronic fatique, heart problems etc and can do very little exercise. But the great news is that you can lose the weight just through diet. My weight loss is all diet and very little exercise. You can do this

Hi, you have made the first big step to losing the weight, getting healthier and not killing yourself by eating to much. MFP is great and easy to use. You can do this, feel free to add me

Hi Andrea, I'm from the uk too, in Nottingham I'm Penny and always good to have friends, you can do it

Hi, I started out needing to lose a similar amount. It takes a lot of will power but sounds you have to come to the point where you know you need to do this and are motivated. You can do, if I can you can.

Hi Steph, I'm in Nottingham. I also have half my body weight to lose and more. You have started now which is a big plus. You can do it Steph, we can do it x

Nottingham here

Hi There, I completely understand the fatigue as like you I have it to as well as Fibromyalgia and a few others. Its hard but you can do it. I think we all understand the losing and gaining it again scenario and being unable to exercise much if at all makes it a little harder but diet is 80% of the whole losing weight…

Brilliant. You have made a start and you can do this. I too have a massive amount to lose so if I can do it you can. Don't set goals that are daunting to start with. Small goals are great because when you reach them it keeps you motivated and a real boost. Don't get discouraged You CAN do it. Good luck keep us posted

Me too Always happy to offer help and to receive it lol.

Hi There. I just have to say how brave you are to disclose that you are MtF transgender and I really hope that it helps others who are trying to lose weight with the same issues. Very well done on the 25 Kg loss so far that's brilliant. Really glad you are feeling great and more energetic. Good luck with the transition and…

Hi Ted Well done on starting going to the YMCA and swimming, that's great. Its easy to sit around and watch tv and not think about what you are eating, I know I've done it. That was a huge drop in calorie intake, You do have to eat more the larger you are. Eating to little makes your body think Its being starved so it…

Hi You have made a great start to your journey, good luck with the rest of it, you can do it.

Hi Steve I agree when your time is up its up but while we are here we need to make the best of it. Feeling good does make life easier. I am of a similar age to you and having lost 13kg so far I definitely beginning to feel the benefits. Still a long way to go but will get there. I'm sure you have found the right place to…

Hi, well done on the 4st loss and good luck with the last 9lbs. You can do it x

You can do this, you have made a big step in doing MFP and its the start of a long journey but a journey that will take you to who you are, who you want to be and those jeans you are dying to put on. Good luck, here if you want or need some support. I've got a long journey too x

I'm happy to go on your journey with you x
