Hi Everyone
I have been posting on and off, on the 3 fat chicks forum since 2008. I just this week discovered this 300+ Club. I am so glad I found this group as I am hoping you all will have a better understanding of the weight loss journey of the super obese and be able to provide more insight and support as I try to lose an additional 110 pounds.
I have been trying to lose weight since 2005 when I was my heaviest at 497 pounds. In the next 7 years I managed to lose and keep off 137 pounds. I am still 360 and would like to lose another 110 pounds and even more.
I see there are various stickies in regard to our progress in pictures, exercise, recipes etc. I haven't had a chance to check them out yet but I will this weekend. I hope to be posting more and getting to know you as I explore this 300+ club.

Great job losing all that weight and even more impressive keeping it off!

I really like the 300+ club. I feel we are a unique group and I find a lot of help and support here.

Hi Amanada,

137 lbs. is an amazing feat of strength, you will persevere! We're all here to help make sure and help along the way.

Looking forward to more post,

Thanks Ubee and Odd Duck. It has been a very hard struggle as I am also physically disabled from an injury that happened by a total stranger in 1990. I can only exercise sitting down but I do go to the gym 3 days a week and use my tricycle 5 times a week. However since March I haven't lost any weight despite all that exercise. So I thought doing a modified WS might help get me off this plateau.
