My friend told me about this site, and I love it already! I am so impressed with all of the tracking abilities. I can't believe it is free!

So, today is the first day of my weight loss journey. I have been overweight since I hit my teen years, and I am so ready to see what it feels like to be healthy. In all of my previous weight loss journeys I have struggled to make it past the first month. My biggest obstacles have been lack of accountability and always trying to do it alone. So... I am thrilled that this site offers a way to connect with others for support and tracking devices for accountability.

    Good luck! Today makes my second day and I love it also. Like you, a friend turned me onto the site and I have already recruited two others. Together we can all keep one another on track and offer encouragement. Here's to health and skinny jeans!

    This is only my 3rd day here and I love it. I've made MAJOR lifestyle changes in the last 4 weeks. I quit smoking and have replaced it with exercise. I also gave up the beer (loved my Miller Lite). I've been doing cardio 6 days a week (elliptical machine) for 30 minutes everyday and have joined the gym again and am faithfully going 3 days a week to do cardio and weights. I haven't felt this good in a very long time. I've lost 9 lbs. already and have would like to lose another 15. It's very hard to get started, but once you get in a routine and you see how good you feel it makes you really WANT to exercise and eat healthy. Good Luck!
