I'm a newbie :-) I've been struggling with my weight since I was a teenager. I'm always up and down. I've found since I've gotten a bit older it's harder to lose so I needed help. I found this site about 2 days ago and so far I love it. I currently seem to get stuck at 158lbs ( I think...I'm in Australia so for me it's 72kgs).
Anyways nice to meet you all. Feel free to say hi :-)

Hi, I am also from Australia, as a teen I was slim but after children and as I've gotten older I have gained weight and have trouble dropping it.
I am currently around 78kg. This is the heaviest I have been! I had all these hopes of losing weight before Summer but it never happened.
This time last year I was jogging 5km most days and had dropped some weight, was doing pre season netball training and was the fittest I had been in a long time, then I had to have an operation and 12 weeks off exercise and I completely lost all motivation and have had trouble finding it since!
I find this site/app really great for tracking my eating! I hope you find the same. Feel free to add me and we can help support each other through the journey
