edited September 2024 in Introduce Yourself
I'm new to my fitness pal, however not new to dieting. Im a yo yo er but I believe that this time around will be FINAL and last time for me. I have "gotten" the calorie game, gotten educated about calories and nutrition and most of all I stay active and workout 5-6 times per week.

I just wanted to introduce myself and since January I have lost 70 LBS! I started way big, but have come down to a weight where Im more comfortable working out, I can run a bit now and I bought a brand new bike yesterday and rode for 2 hours! Its a blast getting this weight off. I still have about 100 lbs more Id love to lose, but I can smell the 200's!!!!!! =)

BRING IT ON! All of you are very inspirational!
