Hello,
My name is Kelley and I'm 27 years old and I've got about 100+ lbs to lose. I've tried many different things to lose weight but I can't suppose I have tried too hard. I love to eat and everytime I've given up after a few weeks. My main goal is to be a healthy weight by the time I'm 30 yrs old. I should be feeling the best I ever have right now and I'm always tired and feeling like poo. I first found this as an app on my cell and I really liked it. I've been on for about 2 1/2 weeks now and I've lost 10 lbs. I checked out the website and I love the website and the app. It's really easy to find foods and add your own if need be. Well, that's all about me for now. I wish everybody luck with their journey. Have a great day!

Kelley:smile:

    woo hoo! Welcome to the community! Wow! Your doing great for having lost 10pds in just a couple of weeks!!! I need to lose a little more than 100pds...but it's been almost 4 weeks and I've only lost 5pds.... :( So your doing awesome!! Keep up the good work! Also if you think you may stop after a couple of weeks...try a video diary on youtube, that way you feel almost obligated to keep going! I know for me I was the same way...after a month I'd fall back into old routines....but the VLOG on youtube is such a big help! Take a look at mine if you'd like SnR41010 If not myfitnesspal is such a great tool!!

    Hey Kelley....Just wanted to let you know that I have struggled with my weight all of my life. You can do this!!!! You have to be determined!!!! If you stick with it even if you get to a point that you are not seeing any results keep pressing on. I lost 98 lbs after my first child. Then got pregnant. I am trying not to lost my weight again. Just remember it's got to be something you REALLY want in your life. GOOD LUCK!!
