I've had this app on my phone for a little while but today is the first day I've logged in on the computer. I think I need to do this daily while at work. It gives me more encouragement to stick to it. Also, I would like to find some more friends. I want people who will help motivate me and say something if they see me getting discouraged or if I have a few days of bad eating. Feel free to add me :smile:

    Thank you both. My parents both lost weight tracking their calories. Its time I stopped being lazy and followed in their paths :) They both have kept it off for the most part. It def helps when you watch what you eat and exercise too

    that's the secret. even if you amass a huge group of supportive friends, just doing this every day is what it takes.

    I am on here daily...if you ask my boss, sometimes too much HA. Feel Free to Add me
  • Feel free to include me..i can relate. Big time.
  • Lost 100 pounds, over 5 years gained 80 of it back. Finally got "that" awful feeling again, and decided a few weeks ago to make some REAL changes. So far so good. I can feel myself getting fuller on less food, and finding myself feeling better. Everyone can do it, just a question of lifestyle change, which is not easy. You just have to hold firm.

    You can feel free to add me as well. I'm in the same situation - been on here for a while, but have just recently started tracking again. It is definitely easier when others are helping to motivate you.

    Ha ha....I'm not so sure my boss would be as ok. She sees me on my cell, which I use mostly for this. Today I just kept it in the background on my computer and checked it here and there when I had some down time.

    Yes we can do it :) Helps to have people to encourage you and also get onto you if they see you're not giving your all. At least that is what I'm wanting :)
