Hi everyone!

My name is Stacy, i'm new to myfitnesspal.com. Previously i've done weight watchers and jillianmichaels.com. My starting weight was 198.6lbs and I was deathly afraid of hitting 200. Mainly because obesity runs in my family, and diabetes. I have 2 young boys and didnt want to give their mommy a shortened life span, so about 18 months ago I started my journey. Ups and downs, and the weight has come off slow. But i've been able to maintain. I'm 158 now and I'm still striving to shave off another 18 lbs to be my ideal weight. Which is now why i'm here. I"m very impressed with the tools on this site, and think it just what I need to shed the remaining weight.

anyway, though i'm not at goal success, I still consider myself a success story going from a size 14/16 down to an 8.

Happy Losing!

    You are inspiration to me...
    The fact you you have lost weight slowly motivates me even more. I used to like fast results, resulting in me gaining weight even more...Weight loss don't necessarily have to be fast to work...it has to be consistent and one step at a time. Thank you so very much!!
