Hi everyone :)

My name is Shelley and I've been using My Fitness Pal for a couple of months now on my Iphone and have finally checked out the website.

My weight loss journey began in 2006 when I went from my heaviest (101kg) down to 73kg but I didn't stick with it and went up and down in a pitiful effort to continue losing the kg's. Last November/December, I stepped on the scales again and was horrified to see I had crept back up to 91.8kg. I started dieting again and exercising regularly and got down to 88kg but over Xmas everything went downhill again. In January I began using the Optifast shakes and got down to 84.55kg by March but we went on a two week holiday in April and I soon found myself back up to 89.9kg. Since then I have been sticking to my healthy eating again and got down to my lowest of 82.75kg last week but have got back up to 84.4kg as of this morning because I went away for the weekend and indulged a little too much! Still determined to get to next goal of 80kg and then back into the 70's!

Thanks for listening to my story and I hope to be making many positive progress reports in the near future!

    Welcome. I think a lot of people have a similar story. I know for me that makes me feel better. To know that other people are going through the same things.
