I'm a 32 year old graphic designer. I live just outside of wine country near Temecula, California. I lost about 75 pounds after my best friend helped me kick my butt into gear a few years back and get into swimming and water polo. Since then I've always been active, but have a habit of enjoying food a bit too much. I'm here to take off a reasonable chunk of pounds (healthily) and keep it off.

Normal healthy eaters?
I think that the members range the gamut- and that those that choose to restrict their calories so drastically would probably do it with or without the aid of the website.

The site does put a greater focus on calories than I personally would like- but it does also allow you to add some more nutritional info to the diet calendar such as fiber and cholesterol. I do wish that you could also display additional nutritional information like vitamins, mineral etc as well.

It would also be nice to be able to log body fat percentage in the same way we do weight- because it's not all just about weight- even more important (for me at least) is the ratio of muscle to fat. You could be losing pure muscle weight and be setting yourself up for worse failure in the future as your metabolism slows down.

That said, the site does give us quite a few options and its a very useful tool- and it's very nice to have a community to support you and challenges to get your butt moving. Smile
