Hi Christina.
I'm new here and looking for a buddy too. I had/have a lot more to lose than you but I'd be happy to be your buddy.
I started at 350 on 1/12/04 and have lost 25 lbs in the last 8 weeks. My ultimate goal weight is 170-180 but 200 would be a great too. I'm 5'11" so I'm kind of waiting to see what I look like at that point. I haven't been under 248 in 10 years so....

My current goal is to be under 300 by the end of May.
Message me or write back here if you're interested.
Ingrid
