Hello everyone,

I didn't want to post because i thought it was pretty corny. So i'm going to post anyway, because this year isn't about what i've thought in the past it's about whats ahead. I have been enjoying the Iphone app that goes with this, tracking what you put in your mouth is a great idea and the app really is suprisingly strong, I haven't stumped it yet with anything i've eaten. So if you haven't yet, you need the app. I'm liking the website as well, great recipe ideas, that are really easy, thank god cause turkey sandwhich with tomatoe was going to get old quick.

I'm making great progress so far, I love that if i work out i can eat a little more. I can't beleive i never put that together. My over all goal is to lose 60 to 70 pds, and i've lost 11 so far. So i'm either 1/6 or 1/7 of the way there.

well good luck to everyone else,

cheers

    I felt the same way about the exercise. I NEVER put it together that I could eat just a little more if I worked out really well. Some days I don't feel like it but I do just a little even if I'm still below my normal daily amount. I've only been doing this for a few weeks but I feel good. I feel like I'm doing something good!
    Best of luck to you!
