Hello, I am new here, I just wanted to introduce myself. I have read succes stories on this forum, and it inspired so much. So I want to try (AGAIN) loosing my weight.
I was obese from the childhood, I "hit the roof" last year, my weight was 273 lbs. From June to December I lost 74 lbs, it was great success for me. But this year everything went wrong, I had stress in my job and university (I graduated this year) - and my weight went upwards.
Luckily, I didn’t gain everything back. I began may journey at 244 lbs and currently my weight is 235 lbs. I know, the first pounds are going fast down, I hope this time I will achieve my goal - 141 lbs. My dream weight was always around 112 - 115 lbs, but I think this is unrealizable.

Thank you all for this awesome forum. Sorry for my terrible grammar.

ayumkasuga! I think you will like it here . The encouragement there is for each other here is wonderful keeps us on track. I had lost 90 pounds and gained 45 back but I to like you am fighting it and I don't plan on giving up. Stress got to me too when i lost my sister a few years back. You can achieve your dream just don't ever give up. I now weigh 196 and I plan on getting down to 145 someday . See ya on the boards.

Thank you for your support. I am very sorry for your loss.

Welcome to the forums. This is a great community. I'm so glad you joined. Don't think that any goal is unachievable. I, myself, thought that getting to a normal BMI weight was impossible. But, after reading some success stories and seeing others with similar goals, I decided to change my initial weight loss goal from 200 to under 150. If you believe in yourself, you can do anything.

Hi and welcome to 3FC!

Congrats on your success and good luck with your goals

Hugs
