I'm 21 years old, from Maryland and most of my friends know me as cait. I've yoyoed my weight since I was in highschiol and have decided that it's high time to take my health into account. I'd like to be able to buy bras and other clothes in a normal store and not have to buy them online.

So many people say I don't look like I need to lose weight but... I'm only 5ft tall and weight 187.4 pounds, which is a pound down from my last weigh in! My body fat is about 45% of my weight which I'm very unhappy about. I need to fix that and myself.

    Welcome to MFP! Congratulations on losing your first pound. There's a user here who has lost something like 100+ pounds (I can't remember the exact total, but it's huge) who says that he didn't lose 100 pounds, he lost one pound 100 times. You're already off to a good start :smile:

    Have you started to read through the pinned posts at the top of each forum. There's a ton of good information there!
