Hi :)

My name is Stacy and i am new here.
This site looks great and i am excited to have stumbled upon it.
I am 29, 5 foot one and used to weigh 250+ (i quit weighing myself at one point). I am down to 170 right now. I have been stuck at a plateau for a while now. I am determined to get down to where i should be.


Have a great day everyone :)

:wel3fc: Hi Stacy!
Congrats on all your success so far, that's quite an achievement! - the support you need is here - we'll all be here to cheer you on!

Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated and inspired. Try the 20 somethings and the weight loss support forums, they're active and very helpful - also the Success stories are a definite must for motivation. To get info and first hand advice on plateaus, use search and try entering plateau - all the posts should come up for you to browse through.

There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.

I've only been here since last fall, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of going off track or giving up. It has made all the difference in my success so far.

So welcome - you've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired! :df:

All the best - good luck with your goals,
Lee
