Hi all,

Saw this website listed on a forum post and thought I would give it a try. I am on Prednisone for Polymyositis and have gained a lot of weight. Trying to get this weight off has been tough. I've managed to loose 22 lbs. on my own but now it seems like I hit a brick wall and can't seem to loose any more weight. I've tried WW because it helped me before but I got tired of having to look up points for everything I was eating. I'm hoping this will work better for me.

    Yeah I think that its easier to count the calories, hopefully you find this more to your liking the WW. Its very helpful and the people here will answer any question you have about plateauing. Sometimes just changing up your routine a little will help get you over the hump. Good luck with you weight loss journey :flowerforyou: :smile:

    I'm new too, I'm hoping I can finally do this for real! :]
    I've been struggling with working up the motivation to loose weight for some time, so I'm hoping this will do the trick. :]

    Thanks for the warm welcome,

    Thanks everyone for the warm welcomes. I am also hoping that counting calories vs. points will be easier. Looking forward to a slimmer me or the old me.
