Hello traceynsophie, congrats on your weight loss and continued success. I feel your pain and know your frustration. I am a 46 yr old single father who suffers with chronic pain and limited mobility.
Since having back surgery in 03, I slowly gained over 150 lbs. I need a hip replacement but can't have surgery until I lose weight. I have lost 80 pounds since March of last year, 11 since I started my fitness pal. I love this app, it helps me stay aware of everything I eat.
Good luck with your pain and struggle, you are not alone.
