I recently took up my fitness pal for a weight and fitness control class that was mandatory for my degree. It's only been a couple of days but I am addicted and wish I had known this had been here all along to take advantage of all the help! I started my weight loss journey almost 2 years ago and have been working at a leisurely pace to keep my weight off. I was almost 300 pounds when I realized, "Whoa!" and put the cookie down. I have lost 80 pounds but still have so much more to go. For me, it' about learning how to live an all-around healthier lifestyle. I want to be emotionally, spiritually and physically healthier. I would love to meet people who need the same and exchange advice about what it takes to be a healthy person, not for society, but for YOU!

How do you post pictures? I have before and afters if anyone wants to see! :)
