Im delighted with this site and phone app... 4lb in one week... i know this rate will not continue.. and I started after gorging on good food and drinks on holidays but im delighted!!!

Im finding tracking on my phone the biggest advantage.. and motivation has increased to excercise when I see the extra calories it allows!!

Great site, think it really has helped!!

    Congrats on the 4 lbs...that's AWESOME!! I will be having my 1st updated weigh-in on Friday since joining this site, so I have no idea yet if it has helped me, or how much. I am EXTREMELY anxious & nervous, so it is inspiring to read your post and see your success.

    I have loved everything about this site so far, never realized having a visual of your food/calorie intake & your exercise would have such an impact. You're so lucky!! I am unable to use the phone app since my phone isn't supported on this site, which I'm really bummed about, but hoping maybe one day soon! Keep up the great work!!:smile:

    Congrats everyone on the weight loss!!!! I am usually nervous on weigh in day as well but I have come to realize that it is just because you would hate to work hard all week and then lose nothing.

    Great Job!!!!!

    ok..

    I had started to reply individually.. but there are a few responses now!!

    So thanks everyone..

    Im proud of myself and I just managed to avoid free cupcakes in work (good performance reward for employees) .. it had lovely soft icing and I really, really, really wanted one... but i went for a walk instead.. disaster averted!!! haha!! im not going to be too hard on myself but id prefer to keep a treat until the weekend!!

    Thanks again everyone!!
