in Introduce Yourself
I was at my heaviest ever and have been figuring out a way to lose it and love doing it. I finally found it - Zumba. It started at my workplace and have gotten me back into exercising and actually enjoying it. This app is great because tracking food was the hardest thing to do because I eat Indian food and this app actually has similar foods already in place. I don't have to start from scratch.

I lost 3 pounds so far!

    I am new to the site but loving it so far....am at my heaviest ever and think I finally hit rock bottom. My biggest "addiction" is soda and it is the hardest to give up. I'm not crazy about diet so I'm trying other fizzy options like seltzer and 1/2 lemonade 1/2 seltzer. Hoping that this will finally be the trick!! Glad to hear everyone's successes...helps to inspire me!!!

    Unfortunately I have the same problem with soda, except it's worse because I prefer diet which has more crazy chemicals in it. Honestly though, I've found that stopping it altogether works best. Or I limit myself to one can/glass a day. I feel the more I drink it, the more it makes me crave it. When I don't have it for a while the cravings go away...
