I'm 21 years old I weight 157 pounds and I have finally decided to lose weight. I used to have issues with my appearance but now I feel that I can love myself. I'm trying to lose weight since I'm a few pounds over the # l should have according to my height. I need all the support l can get. Anyone else who needs a supporting friend?

    You both can do it. This app is amazing and helps to keep you accountable for what you eat. In June of this year I started at 320 pounds and I'm proud to day I'm down to 268 pounds. Still along way to go. But it will pay off. :)

    Hey guys! If you'd love to add me, feel free. I've been trying extremely hard to be sure that I lose the weight in a healthy way that will help me maintain it. I've been at it about a year.. I used to be at 158 and I'm at 133 now and am trying so hard to make it to my goal of 115. (I'm only 5 feet tall) I feel like I've struggled lately trying to continue with the loss, and I don't really no why.
