Hey everyone! My name is Liz, and I've finally taken the first step to getting back into shape. I used to be extremely active in middle/high school and then sort of fell off the path after that (I'm 22 now). At this point, I think my ideal weight would be about 40 pounds less but really as long as I'm in shape and lean then I'll be happy! I started working out/eating right again a week ago and have lost 5 pounds so far. I could really use some motivation and new friends are always welcome! :)

    I'm new to this site and calorie counting myself. I think I have lost 2. 5 lbs. I need to lose about 12 more. That seems like the hardest thing to do. This site really helps alot.
