Day One of Diet
Today is the day that I am starting my weight loss program up again - I have taken a month off and now am going back at it. I hope this works and will continue me on a journey of no pain and energy to spend time with my children again

How did I get here?
We all know what makes up a healthy lifestyle - eating within our caloric budget and keeping active. So, why haven't I done that? Why have I let myself get to a state of obesity? Because I eat too much and don't like to move. But I am tired of living with all this excess weight on me. I just turned 30 and I would like to…

Newbie with Maintenance in Mind
Hi everyone... I'm looking for some friends! :p I'm hitting the age of 29 this February and my new year's resolution is to simply eat well and keep excercise in my life.

Working alone and need someone to talk to
Hi, I have been trying to do this on my own and am finding that sometimes I just need to share. I am not usually a joiner or even someone who can open up. Guess that may have a bit to do with my weight. I work two part time jobs and usually eat my dinner around 3:45pm. So, by the time I get home any where between 8 and 10…

Day 17...maybe I need some peeps?
Today is day 17. I originally started using this app on my phone only to track my food and workouts. I'm very much a numbers person and need to see things broken down to fully understand and believe them. (OMG, I drank 900 calories worth of wine and beer on my first Friday night!) So this site is good. After about a week,…

I live on the Arkansas/Oklahoma border near Fort Smith and am looking for a walking partner a couple of days a week. Can meet in Fort Smith, Muldrow or Sallisaw.
