NEW!

I'm just starting here. I'm starting at 174, hoping to get to 120..... I'm 5' tall.... I need all the encouragement I can get. 174 isn't even my heaviest, in August of 2010 I was at 196!

    Hello! and welcome. This is an amazing site to lose weight. If you stick with it you will see a change in yourself really fast! :)
    Fill free to add me as a friend for encouragement! I use to weigh 175 when I started counting calories and now I am currently at 151. I am 5'2 so we are both shorties! :)

    Knowledge is Power!

    Hi I just joined yesterday, and am really impressed with the site and all the encouragement. I'm 168 and 5' 2". Hoping to get to 148 then review. Would love to go further but 20lbs seems enough to aim for as a start!! Good luck.
