Currently I am an 18 year old sophomire at college and started using this app in february for just the calorie counting part, but recently decided to get involved in the social media part. I'm trying to lose at least 50 pounds and I've already lost 10 since February even though I lost track for 2 month in between. Can't wait to get to know others who are going through the same thing that I am!

Hello, the calorie counter is good, another tool in the tool box. That is why I joined, you don't realize how many calories are in some foods. I was at chills, order the low cal dinner, my friend ordered a molten lava cake for dessert. That thing is 1150 calories and it's only a little piece of cake and scoop of ice cream. Luckily I ate half and she ate half, so it didn't blow my calorie budget out of the water.
Remember, losing weight takes time, so don't get discouraged0
