Hi all, October of last year I realized I became out of breath just walking behind my great niece and determined then that was not what I wanted for my life! At 48 there's a lot of life ahead of me. I want to be very active in my grandkids life( whenever I get some). So I had to make changes! I'm working on healthier eating choices, exercise and being active and enjoying life. I started using this app because I wasn't eating enough calories, which was against my weight loss efforts. I love the app! Good luck on your journey-- WE CAN DO THIS!!!

Friends welcomed

    I really appreciate your statement of "I have a lot of life ahead of me." YOU DO! You're in a good mindset and I hope you never lose that part of you. Good luck to you!

    Hello All!
    Today is my first day here. I began this journey because I need more energy for my grandkids. I also hope that my knee pain will decrease. Keep up the great work all!
