Hello Folks,
I joined today and I’m happy to be here. I am STRONGLY motivated toward getting rid of 100 lbs. My size has caused me to miss out on things I have always wanted to do and now it is affecting activities I want to do with my kids. I have never recorded my calories before until today using the app. I discovered that my snack of peanuts is over 900 calories! This is an eye opener and it feels awesome. So rule number 1, chill out with the peanuts! :happy:

Words of wisdom, helpful ideas and positive talk are always welcomed.

    I set out wanting to lose about 80 but now more than half the way there I'm thinking 100 would be great! I can't wrap my head around that much so I take baby steps. Good luck everyone!:flowerforyou:
