Hello there!!

I stumbled across this page because I just got an iPhone and it was one of the most high-rated, free health/fitness apps. lol So I decided to go onto the actual website and here I am. I love this site!! :) Probably one of the best hidden gems on the Internet. :)

So a bit about me...I started off at 178 lbs and lost 63 lbs so far. I now am trying to lose my last 15-20 lbs (I have a small frame and I'm under 5' if you can believe that!) that just seem to be permanently stuck to my body. I seem to be losing and gaining the same 5 lbs and I'd really like to put an end to this yo-yo dieting. I'm hoping that this site will help keep me accountable and eventually get to my dream goal weight.

I hope to make new friends here that I can relate to, in hopes that we can support each other through our journey. Best of luck everyone!!

    I was in shock when I first started using this site - I am around 5'-0" and apparently if you're around our height, you actually are the size of person that the site allots the dreaded/taboo 1200 calorie allotment to (for weight loss of course, not maintenance, which would be more). Feel free to add me if you like! :flowerforyou:
