I am new here...had always used FatSecret or FitDay, but I think I like this set up much better :bigsmile:

Anyhow, I am turning 29 this year and am just really looking to get healthy. I've always been "thick". My weight would range around 145-150 most of my adult life. I managed to get down to 120 in the winter of 2008 by following the Extreme Fat Smash Diet. Sadly, I gained it back and then some. I am currently at 168 :sad: and nothing fits me!! I went from a size 2 to a size 12....in two years. I feel awful..unhealthy and I am just really looking for some motivation. I want to make a lifestyle change. Become active and enjoy working out.

Hope to make some good friends on here who are in search of the same things :smile:
