Hi Guys/girls

well i thought i would share my success with my fitness pal with u all. I started to use my fitness pal back in late feb this year, and i have logged in every day and logged every morsel of food and drink that has passed my lips since then. I was a starting weight of 18 stone 6 " and at 5 foot 2" looked like a whale!. my health was suffering, my asthma was getting worse and something was goin to give and that was ME. so i made a conscious effort that i needed to change things. my partner told me about my fitness pal. i must admit i was a bit dubious as i had tried all sorts of diets before and nothing worked, but i will try anything once. I must admit i found it easy to record all i eat and drunk and any exercise i have done and now 7 months later i am now 12 stone 12 pounds!!!!

I am so much lighter on my feet. I can power walk now for exercise and i have dropped 4 dress sizes!!

This is truly a life saver for me and i would like to say thank you to all involved in it

    Have you tried to pickup a 5 year old lately? There is nothing "only" about 49 pounds :)
