in Introduce Yourself
My name is Lindsay...AND I've been on and off of dieting. Half the time I don't even try but I still loose. I got out of a 4 year relationship almost 2 years now..and I've gained a ton of weight. My weight fluctuates all the time..its annoying. Since Jan. I lost 24 lbs. A while back I lost 20 lbs on weight watchers pretty fast...but that was before the relationship. I've tried slim fast..but I pretty much starve myself to death...and thats hard including when you have an irregular work schedule. My friend introduced me to this site..it reminds me of weight watchers so much..because of the calculations and what not..and it also gives me my limit. But with this website I can pretty much eat whatever I want..with some limitations. So far...I'm loving this website! I would like to meet others who are struggling to loose weight just like I am. I love meeting new people :)

    I've been on a weight loss roller coaster for almost 10 years now! I've done weight watchers, calorie counting and slim fast. Keep up the great attitude and enjoy the journey!

    Our goals are not the same (I am trying to improve my diet and gain muscle mass) but the key to reaching our goals is the same: encouragement and consistency. This site helps with both. Feel free to add me to your circle.

    Hi Lindsay - I am with you there like many - I tried weight watchers with my mom, I think I lost about 15 pounds, but that was a long time ago, since then I have also gained a lot of weight. I am part of the biggest loser website - their food log in are ok, but not as user friendly as this website and it is free! Love it! Add me if you like!

    Hey there. Welcome to the site and good luck with your fitness goals!

    I also have had the problem with weight that fluctuates..very annoying! In the past, it was easy to just wrkout and shed unwanted pounds. Now that 30 is right around the corner, it has become more difficlut.

    I use the mobil app for this site to track my calorie intake.
