Hi everyone, I'm Elizabeth, 21 year old girl from Australia, I've been using this app on my phone since Christmas and have lost 12kg with the help of my fitness pal. I've never had a tool that has helped me work out my calorie intake so easily!! I have been dieting since October last year though and all together lost 20kg so far. So 8 on my own and 12 with this. I thought I would start posting on the community boards too for extra support :)... My Goal is to get to 60kg (132ibs) by the end of the year. I'm 96 right now.(211ibs). I was so shocked last night when I realised that my BMI has gone down from 43.77 (morbidly obese) to now 36.21 (obese, but improved) I realised even though I don't feel a huge change yet physically, that I have slowly taken myself out of being morbidly obese, and that is a huge thing for me.
Good luck everyone!! :)

    Wow, your off to a great start. Lowering you BMI by that much is a huge improvement!! Keep up the great work!! I just started this application today and want to lose about 80 pounds. If you want some motivation add me as a friend, I need the motivation too :O)

    Awesome start! I started last June and didn't find this until a fee months into it. It has been a great tool and I've found many great ideas from other members that have helped me a lot. I've lost 70 lbs now and this has kept me on track. Just be consistent and patient through the plateaus and you'll get to your goal!
