I have struggled with my weight all of my life. (67years). This program has really helped me to be accountable and aware of what I eat on a daily basis. I am into my 4th month and have lost 22 pounds. I am told a slow loss of (1) pound per week is healty and most acceptable. Just wanted to share my great progress with everyone. Good luck to all and be honest and aware of what you are eating. Good luck to all of my "myfitnesspal" friends.

    Awesome job on your loss!!!! I too love this website and a few of my personal friends have joined because of my success. The people on here are awesome and even when you are feeling bad about the journey, someone always comes along and kicks ya in the butt. I have met some really great people and see myself being connected with them for a long time to come. I actually find that I am on here more than facebook now, which is a big deal for me. I feel that I can be more myself with the group of friends I have got on here because we are all going through this together or have already gone through the struggles I am facing.

    Keep up the great work!

    Awesome for you! I think it's a great tool too. Like you I've spend most of my life overweight. Like me you would remember the old days when we didn't have computers or tools like this, counting calories was true drudgery back in the day. This tool is awesome, fun, and I really don't find it a chore. I find counting calories fun now.
