Im so sick of feeling tired and ashamed all of the time. I feel like Im in a hopeless situation with my weight but I know that other people have helped themselves, so what makes me so special that I cant do it?
Diet & exercise..thats it. Sounds so simple, yet I cant seem to grasp it.
Im 50 now and not getting any younger (or thinner!) so-starting today, I will count my calories and move my rear.
Lookout world, here I come!

New here too. I hear you on the tired and ashamed. Like others mentioned this app is a great tool. So easy to see where I stand on a day to day basis. I really had blinders on when it came to caloric intake. Seems like lot's of good people here to help each other. Take it one day at a time. You will do great.0

It will be a battle, I know, but Im ready.
I just finished logging in my food and holy cow, youre not kidding about the blinders!
My little light dinner just cost me BIG calories. YEESH!
I call that a lesson learned...haha..stupid salad dressing!
Good luck and stay strong & motivated everyone!

Nothing wrong with starting again! Unlike many, you decided to get off the canvas. That's a good thing.
Best wishes for meeting your goals! Stay motivated and keep us appraised of your efforts.
Welcome aboard!
