Hey all,
My Name is Lia and i am a 22 year old african american college student. I have struggeled with my weight since i was diagnosed with crohn's disease at the age of 16. I had to take steroids for a while and it made me gain a lot of weight. i went from 160lbs to about 230lbs! I am almost 5'9" tall so 160lbs looked great on me. I would love to be there again. I have managed to get my weight back down to between around 190-200lbs. I seem to hit a brick wall. my weight keeps fluctuation between those 10lbs and i really want to get back to my 160. if anyone has any advice PLEASE help. :big_smile:

Welcome to FT Lia! The best thing to do when you've hit a plateau is to change things up. What have you been doing so far to lose the weight? You should fill out your profile.
