You can add me. I'm currently at 298, down from my biggest of 307. I've been doing this for a little over a month. The goal is to get healthy. Acknowledging you have a problem is the first step. The next is to simply do something about it. That is what we are all here doing.

This. Grandma and Grandpa didn't go to work and then go to the gym. They didn't count calories, or check the fat intake. Their jobs were workout enough. My grandfather worked construction, the other one farmed. My grandmothers cooked and cleaned without aids of dishwashers, vacuum cleaners, washing machines. They made real…

Yeah this. Sometimes I often find this site to be not very supportive and full of negativity. Personally I'd rather have a competent fat nurse than an incompetent skinny one, but looking at some of the responses here, I guess the skinny nurse would be more to their liking.

This is the most important part of the study.

This and why are you watching what other people eat? Are you the food police? Maybe their creamy dressing on their salad was reduced fat, or did you go to the trash to dig out the packet to investigate? Maybe they work out two hours a day six days a week and feel they deserve the bacon bits. Who knows? My perinatologist…

I don't like how they feel.

Exactly.......not saying the gym is right, but I get why people could see the attraction of this concept.

She didn't say thin people made the comments. Rude people come in all shapes and sizes..

Your 1st sentence is why I haven't been in a gym in over three years. I was there to work out, but for others I was there to make fun of. So I purchased some fitness DVDs and have been using my Wii to work out.

I seriously can't wait to be where you are. You are my thinspiration!!!!!

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I had a miscarriage at 8 weeks, a stillbirth at 21 weeks, and now I have an active, wild child 2 year old. It can and will happen :) The pain gets easier to handle over time, it really does. If you ever need someone to talk to, please let me know.

I just signed up today. I have 155.2 lbs to lose. Hopefully it will happen.
