    Hi everyone!
    I'm new to fitness pal, it is so helpful to read everyone's journey. I'm trying to loose about 15lbs, but a lot of stress has added all the weight to my stomach region. At 49 that is pretty dangerous so I'm starting to loose it before it gets out of hand.

    I came here as a means to track my Na+ intake, and immediately dropped 10 pounds in water weight...all in my feet. The next 100lbs is NOT going to be so easy. I'm shooting for 2lbs a month, so I'll be here with you for a while. Good luck with it...I'll see you around...but we won't be ROUND for much longer I hope!!!

    I would like to lose about 20 lbs more. I was 202 lbs at my heaviest and 189 lbs when I started MFP. I'm at around 180 lbs now, so 10 lbs on MFP took me 2 months. Good luck!

    I'm not sure anymore as I've switched my focus to strength training. I'd be fine if the number on the scale goes up or down or stays the same at this point so long as I get muscular and my fat goes away resulting in a smaller, sexier me! :bigsmile:

    Welcome. I have about 175lbs to lose! I know its alot but I am in this for the long haul. I started about 2 weeks ago and lost 20.5lbs already. I know alot of it was probably water weight. I have totally changed the way I eat and started working out with Zumba Fitness on the Wii. The app for my phone is the best thing ever. It helps me hold myself accountable for what I am eating. I definatly think twice before I eat something. Before starting this I NEVER looked at the back of the box of something.. now I do it without thinking about it! Good luck! Feel free to add me :)
