Morning y'all!

I've had this app on my phone for a while and decided I would finally utilize it! I'm the type of person who runs to food when I'm stressed so I decided I'd start just running instead. I'm using the c25k plan to help me out since I haven't ran in years. I've got 2 very active little boys {5 and 2} and I want to not only be in good shape for them, but to stay healthy and show a good example for them. I'm not one to stick to diets/work outs very well so I'm hoping this site/app will help me stick to it this time!

Good luck to everyone!

    Welcome! I have the app on my iPhone and it has helped me a lot! I hope that it helps you as well! Keep active. I have 3 kids (3yrs to 10 yrs) and that is great that they are motivators in your weight-loss journey!

    Hey there,

    Welcome to the club! Kudos on starting up with the phone app. That's how many of us (myself included) came across the site.

    The food/exercise trackers are a great way to keep yourself honest and give you an overview of how you're eating in general over time.

    All the best to you!

    :-)
