When I started this on my boyfriend's iphone, I didn't really expect it to go anywhere.. I usually start eating healthy, then for whatever reason (stress, money, time) I give up. I expected to do the same this time around, but I'm amazed that I've actually lost 13lbs!! actually, 12.8 to be exact. It's not a major accomplishment yet, but it's something. It's the most I've ever been able to lose.. ever. I'm so proud of myself. I didn't want to put this in "Success Stories" just yet, as I have so far to go, but this is a little mini success for me. My doctor told me yesterday that I might have a pretty serious health problem, and in spite of that, I'm still managing to lose weight, the right way! So thank you to everyone who supports and motivates me on here. You guys&girls deserve a medal or something. :)

I was just too excited to keep this to myself!! Lol.
Have a good day, and good luck!!

    13 is great, no matter how much or little you have to lose. what matters is that you're motivated and going strong! and GOOD FOR YOU to take the moment to be proud of yourself! that happiness and success will only lead you to greater success....i'm just starting my journey, so thanks for the inspiration!
  • Congrats on your 13lbs and you should be proud of yourself. To me, every healthy food choice I make, every day I exercise and every pound I lose is a success.

    Good luck - you can do it!! :flowerforyou:
  • Be proud that IS a major accomplishment - no matter what - its taking you in the right direction - WTG!

    The best thing about this site and this app is that it forces you to think about what you eat and how much you exercise every single day... not in a bad, annoying, or nagging way either, but in a fun way... it makes taking care of yourself part of your daily routine, and I think that's why it's so successful for so many people. You're doing great, keep it up!
