  • Hi! I'm 27, 5'3, and 296.3 lbs, I used to weigh 345 lbs. My goal is to reach about 140 lbs, so I have a long way to go! I used to just focus on calories.

  • Personally, I don't have a leg day because SL compound exercises work your full body. And when it comes to legs, I can't think of a better exercise than squats...which you do every workout with SL.
  • I completely understand how you feel. I decided to try the Strong Lifts 5x5 program. I have never lifted weights before and I've never been a gym member. But like you, I've heard about all the fantastic benefits of lifting and I just had to see if it'll work wonders for my body as well. I was so nervous the night before my…
  • Hi @cherrybomb333! I'm glad to hear I'm not alone in this :smile: I've never lifted in my life, but I really want to in order to maintain some muscle while I lose fat.

  • Hi Ed, I just joined MFP yesterday. And I must say that I am so thankful that I came across this thread. On just day one of my new journey, I wanted to give up because I could not imagine giving up all of my comfortable but bad old habits. But seeing you triumph has literally brought me to tears as I type this because I…
  • Hi Myst036, Thanks for that encouraging messaging. Congratulations on your weight loss! I am at the very beginning of my journey and was feeling discouraged a few hours ago. So, it is wonderful to hear that this will soon become second nature for me and not so much of a battle with my cravings. Thanks again! :happy:
  • Oh and of course, feel free to add me!
  • Hi everyone! I just joined today and I have 192 pounds to lose. I am 25 years old and I am very excited about finally taking better care of myself. I decided to start my new year off on a more positive note that is focused on my health, so today is Day 2 for me (of many more to come). I know that this will be a long a…
