Hello everyone! I'm from the South Eastern portion of the USA. I'm starting the baby steps of losing weight. I've been over 300 pounds for about 8 years now, possibly a little longer. I do not have a scale of my own, but I plan to get one very soon. I am double the medically recommended weight for my height. It is very hard on me and slows me down. I can't even walk my dog anymore! I want to get down to 220, it is my first goal. From there I would be happy just being around 180. I don't see myself being smaller than that.

I heard from a few places that this forum is extremely helpful for losing weight and I figured I would come on by. I tried another website but it's hardly active and there's lots of "trolls" over there.

Glad you joined us. Yes, this site is the best, IMHO!!!!

Welcome aboard! Get that scale, get moving (as much as possible), and watch your diet. Good luck! You can do this!!!!

Welcome and good luck on your journey!

I'm 246... My goal is 180 as well. Once I get there then we'll see...Good luck!

Welcome, LittleSouthern! This is a great site; it's been instrumental in keeping me on track and the folks here are so supportive and motivating! Definitely get a scale asap... I know it might be hard to look at that number the first few times, but it's good to see where you're at and track your progress. Good luck and I look forward to seeing you around the forum!
