I started fitnesspal.com in May of 2011. I have lost 58 lbs using fitnesspal, and the other 6 just... just eating something different.

I am 5'6. 21 years old. I lost 21 lbs by my 20th birthday (July 2011) and then lost the rest.

I am kind of at a stand still and have been for the last couple of months. I hope by posting this I will be inspired (be able to look back and really see how far I've come) and gain some new friends to inspire me to go forward! I still want to get down to 148 and then 128. So, I have a bit of ways to go.

I rely on God for grace. I exercise by doing zumba and walking/running. I eat my calories and try not to eat over. I do splurge sometimes (that is not to be encouraged though), and if I can do it ANYONE can. I have been big since I was 15 years old, and this is the first time in 7 years I've been under 200. I am so happy to be getting my life back and excited to actually LIVE my 20s!

Height: 5'6
S-BMI: 39.7 OBESE II
C-BMI: 30.6 OBESE I
Highest weight: 260 lbs
Lowest weight: 148 lbs
Starting weight: 246.2 lbs
Current weight: 189.4 lbs

Started out as a size 22 going on 24. Now I am a size 14.
