Got pregnant, had a baby, fell way off the wagon. I need some friendly active friends to motivate and stay motivated!!

I'm in as well! :) So exciting. I'll be back in 5 days for initial weight. ;)

I'll give this a shot! :) Height: 5'6 Current Weight: 262.2 Goal: 247.2 I'm a little late to this party, but I'll still try.

Congrats! The rate will probably slow but ever pound is worth it! :) Can't wait to see the rest of your progress!

Wow that is amazing!! Really, really great job! So inspiring!

I'd always love more friends!! :)

I think the OP deleted her account.... :(

You look fabulous in both pictures but you look happier in the current ones, and you are positively glowing. Keep up the awesome work! :)

Being able to wear a dress size not in the 20s to my sisters wedding in July.

Wow. Just, wow. How very rude you are. "Don't treat that as an accomplishment"? Any weight loss is an accomplishment! The decision to change your life to better yourself is an accomplishment! How dare you come on here and tout your 'holier than thou' BS. Instead of raising her up and encouraging her to continue down her…

Maybe slightly TMI, but I can look straight down and only see my chest now. I used to see my stomach poking out past my bosom, so I'm totally stoked about that. >.>

Great job! I would also love to see this thread bloom since I have a lot to lose as well!

Hello group mates! My name is Kori but everyone just calls me Lynx. I've been a sufferer of intracranial hypertension (also known as pseudotumor cerebri) for two years. It is a lesser known chronic disorder I think. Pretty much my body produces spinal fluid quicker than I can absorb it and the excess fluid crowds my spine,…

We totally can!! Great job to all of us for just coming back to it! We got this!

We can totally do it ladies (and gents if you see this)!!!!

Wow looking great!!! Awesome job!!

This is awesome, guys! Great job! It would be really awesome if you all could post your heights too. I'm getting my husband in to losing weight and he is 6'2 and currently weights 352. You guys are all awesome. Keep up the excellent work!!

Bump bump! Looking forward to seeing some more progress from ladies around my height!! :)

Anyone can add me! I like to support others!!! :)

I agree with this. Also, sometimes when you aren't drinking enough water, you body will try to hold on to what you have taken in to sustain itself over a period of time. I have also heard that the amount of sodium that you consume has an affect on water weight, so keeping sodium consumption at a normal amount should help…

No, there is NO way to spot-reduce. The body and human metabolism do not function that way. And then I gave exercises for toning up the MUSCLE under the area that they are trying to reduce. More muscle = higher metabolic rate at rest.

Truthfully, no matter what anyone says, there is no way to spot-reduce, to get rid of fat in a specific area of your body. The body just doesn't work like that. Mostly, I would focus on working the transverse abs which are underneath that area and build more muscle there to help tone it out. A good exercise is the reverse…

I really enjoyed the Just Dance games when I had a Wii. They were a great way to get my heart rate up and sweat. Not necessarily a 'workout game' but it certainly keeps you active.

Age: 23 Height: 5'5" HW: ~280 LW: 238 CW: 242 GW: 180 by 5/17/2014 UGW: 140 (possible less depending where I'm at when I get there. :] )

I just started a week ago, but I have logged every day since then. I don't plan to let up any time soon. EDIT: Wait there was one day I didn't log because I couldn't keep anything down all day.

Difference between 266 (left) and 240 (right). Not a big change, but less of a double chin! :D

Add me if you like, I have over 100 lb to lose. :)

Video game nerd here. I love XBOX games and I am also an avid World of Warcraft player. :) Also a huge Harry Potter fan. Re-reading the books right now! :D I used to play tabletop RP such as DnD and WhiteWolf stuff, as well as table top Star Wars, but I haven't been doing so for quite a while. And I am a BIG anime and…
