Hello, My name is Kathy and I added the app to this site to my IPOD last weekend. I had gastric bypass 7 years ago and never got to my goal and gained a little of it back so now my doctor has me on new medication but I decided to also try this and see if I can get some support. So far this has been fantastic and I have lost almost 9 pounds in the first week. My goal is to lose 100 pounds. Yes I said 100 it was not a typo.
I am a mother of a very active 9 year old and she has been my motivation. Literally since she tells me that we need to go for a walk or that I need to eat more healthy! My husband is also very supportive but its only a start I need a lot more encouragement and love that there are forums here that we can all support one another!
Thanks for reading!
