Hey! I am 25, married, and need some active mfp friends! I am 5'11, started at 260, am now 236. Goal is 180. Feel free to add me!

Since you have a lot to lose (like me), I would not eat back all your exercise calories. I would eat back some. Listen to your body,.if it is hungry feed it. It's ridiculous to eat so many calories. But if you wanted to experiment you could try one week of doing that and one week of eating them all back. Since you are…

For the past two days I have read the major threads about this because I didn't know what to do. I have come to the conclusion that on days I don't exercise I try to eat around 1500. (I'm 5' 11 250lbs) And on days I exercise I will eat a little more because I am usually a bit more hungry. I have also read that if you only…

Could not agree more! I will be ecstatic when I reach 199!!!

You are most definitely not alone! I'm at 250 with 60 more to go. Please anyone feel free to add me I need lots of support!

Happy belated birthday! I'm from Texas also and 22 and want to lose about 60-80 pounds! Hope you enjoy mfp,.i.sure have so far! Add me if you like!

So happy for you!!!! What an inspiration you are!

Thin crust is way lower in calories than the other kinds :-)

Yes it should!!!!

My whole life has been an aha moment that I mostly ignored I have been fat my whole life. I remember in jr high weighing 230. Size 18/20 in highschool 290lb. Lost 50 pounds on quick weight loss center diet and gained it even quicker back. Got up to 293. Always tried eating healthy....got down to 250 two years ago for my…

I love this group! you and I are pretty much identical! My goal weight is 190's. Current weight 250 and started at 256. I hope we all tech our goals in 2012!

I'm 5' 11 and currently weigh 250, would love to be in the 190's.

Yes!!!! Amen!

Thank you :-)

Yes!!!!! Me too it's horrible

I need motivational friends! I want so badly to be healthy this year. For my health, I've just got to!!! Please feel free to add me!

I feel your pain so so so much. I also weigh about 260 and want to have a baby very soon. I'm in nursing school and I've learned how important it is to be healthy BEFORE conceiving. This is a really good motivation and I hope to be pregnant by three end of this year., I wish you the very best. Add me if you like!

Sending request now!

Oh my goodness this post hits home!!! I'm 5' 11 and currently 253 and my goal is 199 (just want to be under 200!!!) I can't imagine myself weighing less. I've got a large chest and a big butt and ginormous hips!!! I think bmi is a joke for women shaped like me. I want to be under 200 so badly!!!

Same here! Need to lose about 60 lbs and it's very hard while I am in college!

Height is just a number! My hubby of almost two years is 5' 8 and I'm 5'11.

I'm 5' 11 and currently weigh 253 and can wear an 18. But weird thing is when I weighed about 290 three years ago I was still in an 18. My goal is to be in the 190's and hopefully a size 12/14.

Enough is enough, my thoughts exactly!!! feel free to add me I need lots of encouragement and motivation. It's going to, be a tough journey but so many others have done it, so it's definitely possible!!!

I am 22 and have so many health problems and I want to lose 50 pounds in 2012 also. Add me and let's do it together!!! So many people have done it and I know we can too. I want to get healthy so badly. I'm tired of feeling like I'm 80.

Started at 290, got down to 250, stayed there for 2 years, gained 10, and now ready to get down to 199. I would love some friends who have as much as me to lose and congrats to everyone for doing something about it!

Hi! You will love mfp. It really puts things in perspective. Lots of encouragement here also. And motivation. I have seen people that have lost so much weight using this thing. Hopefully that will be me one day lol

Hi everyone! My mini goal is to lose weight BEFORE new year's day. This next week is the time when I can put on 10 pounds easily. I want to be different this year. My long term goal is to get under 200. But that's a ways away! I also have a great pair of jeans I'd love to wear again. If I lost 10 pounds I'd say I could fit…

I want to join in also! I have a great pair of jeans hanging in my closer. They stare at me everyday but I cannot get them over my huge hips!!!! And huge love handles...

Wow zumba sounds fun! You have a great mind set and a positive attitude. You will love this website. The phone app is great also, please add me if you like :-)

Hi Rose! I feel the same way. It's definitely overwhelming but the end result will be so very worth it. Believe in yourself and know that so many people especially on here believe in you!
