Hello,

I realize this site is mostly for women. But it is by far the best weight loss forum I have found. I am in a bit of trouble with my weight and am looking for some help. My doctor wants me to lose 60 lbs before we move forward with a weight loss surgery. But overall I need to lose about 250 lbs. So I have started down that road. Today is day 4. I have decided to lose the 60 lbs and just keep on going and not have to get the surgery. So we'll see.

Anyway, this might be a shot in the dark, but I am looking for someone going through something similar (100+ lbs of weight loss, etc). Someone I can exchange daily emails with. Just someone I can talk about what I am going through with. Someone who is in it for the long haul like I am. I am very motivated and optimistic that I can pull this off. So I think I could be a good friend to someone trying to do the same.

If you would like to know more about me, you can read my bio in the "300+.....Bios" thread. Or just click on my screen name on this post and select "Find more posts by....".

Anyway, thanks for reading this and good luck with everything.

Hi. I think you're thread will be a great place for everyone to share their successes and struggles.
Are you following a particular program?
Im always looking for motivation and inspiration. For me, watching the Biggest Loser is fantastic. I prefer watching big people lose weight since I can relate!!
Good Luck!

2Chi,

Yea, that would be good. One of the downsides of this forum is that there are so many threads.

I am currently on a high protein, low carb plan. I drink a OptiFast shake for breakfast. Have an OptiFast bar for morning and afternoon snacks. I have a Heathy Choice soup for lunch. And for dinner I have 6 oz. of chicken or pork and 1 cup of veggies.

Seems to be working so far.

How about you?
