Hello I am new

Hello all. I was told about this site by a relative. I will be 50 next month and need to lose about 100 pounds. I have tried everything and have finally decided to do the old fashioned thing of counting calories. I lost about 25 pounds in about 4-5 months and then did not lose anymore. I just got on the scale and have gained 9 pounds back. But this is what I always do. I love online learning so I am hoping to find and give support via my fitness pal.
