I just started May 1st with this app on my phone. It is so easy to us and it keeps me honest! Lost 2 pounds so far. I only want to lose a few pounds but it has always been hard for me to diet and lose those last few pounds.

Welcome. I had been slim most of my life but when I quit smoking, I replaced smoking with eating and gained about 50 pounds. I like this site because it is more than a diet. It gives you the tools to eat properly and balance your lifestyle with exercise. I also like it because you can custom tailor your display to show what you want. I chose to track cholesterol (since mine was not so great) and also track salt. Once you see how much salt is added to processed/restaurant foods, you can adjust accordingly - I make a lot more from scratch now.
I'm sure you will be able to have great success here. There are lots of people to help you out and offer encouragement. :glasses:0
