I just set my goals and completed my ticker, and am excited to say bye to this weight I have been carrying for the last 17 years. My first goal is to actually be under 180. The last time I was under 180, I was 24 yrs old. It's pretty sad, when you start getting comfortable in your own fat. This is a great website....I am happy I found this app. on my new android. So, awesome!!!

    Hi Everyone. I was in the low 180's a few years ago for many years. I discovered that no matter what I did it was so hard to lose the weight. The only thing that would work was almost starving myself. Turns out I'm allergic to a few foods & have loads of food allergies. I was constantly eating all these foods which were making me swollen & retain my weight. I cut out all the foods I had sensitivities too and lost over 20 lbs without working out & still eating. Now i'm in the low 160's & have decided to join this site & begin working out to get rid of what remains to achieve my goal because i've reached a plateau.
    Good luck to you and keeping a positive attitude will get us all through this....
