I finally am ready to get this weight off once and for all and I thought I would give fitnesspal a try :) I am pretty bad about counting calories so I thought that is where I needed to start and it looks like this site will help. I have 100+ pounds to lose so I have a long journey ahead of me but it's time to finish the journey I started.

About a year and a half ago I started dieting and lost 65 lbs. but I soon got "bored" and stopped. Since then I only gained about 10 lbs. of it back which isn't bad considering I have been off the "dieting" for quite some time. My actual start date was 4/26/2010 and I lost 2 lbs. so this is a good start.

I am in this for the long haul and I hope I get to know a lot of you here. I hope to get support as well as give it and be a part of this wonderful site.

Thanks for listening!!

    Welcome! Remember it takes a while to loose, but if you keep at it, it will stay off. Quick results end up in quick weight gain.

    I also have 100+ to lose and would like to add you as a friend. I started on this site before Christmas of last year but never really kept up with it. I started "dieting" again and lost 5 pounds before getting serious again and then logging on here everyday. I have lost a total of 12 pounds now and lots of inches :happy: Good luck!

    You are more than welcomed to add me as a friend :) Once I figure out how to add friends then I will do it if you haven't yet but I need some time to navigate and figure things out lol.

    Congrats on the 12 lbs. lost ...that is AWESOME!! And the inches lost are great too cause it all helps and gets us closer to that goal. Thanks and I look forward to getting to being here and having support as well as giving support.
