Hello. I joined this website because a friend of mine has had a lot of success using the tools here. So far things have gone well for me. I have lost 47 pounds since February. I still have quite a few more to go. Pretty excited that with a few more pounds lost I won't be considered "obese" anymore, just fat. LOL! I decided to lose weight because I have a bad back and the weight isn't helping it out any. So if I want to live pain free I have to become fat free as well.

I have completely changed my diet. I have also been on Nutrisystem since August. I have cut way back on eating out. I have also joined a gym. For the first time since I started this, I am stuck at a weight. I haven't lost any weight in 2 weeks. I haven't gained any either, thankfully. I hope the stuckness is just due to the extra time I am spending at the gym.

Anyway, just wanted to say Hello!

    Hi there! Congrats on all your weight loss so far! I'm in a very similar boat and just went from "obese" to "overweight" a few weeks ago - I never thought I'd be so excited to be overweight, hahaha. I'm also in a bit of a plateau phase but I'm working on being more diligent with cals and upping my workout intensity, so hopefully the numbers will start going down again. Fingers crossed that the same happens for you!
