HI, My name is Trista. I'm 23 years old and once again starting my weight loss journey. I waited in line to try out for the Biggest Loser for 5 hours last week in Chicago and after not receiving a call back decided that if I had the conviction to wait in line that long there is no reason I can't do this at home. My sister found this website as an app on her phone so I decided to check it out. I def will need support and am willing to give any that is needed. Thanks :)

    I'm also new here and from the Chicago area. I've been using the app on my phone for 2 weeks and finally decided to check out the website. We are not alone in this journey and it's great to have ppl around you going through the same thing. Add me for more encouragement. Good luck on your journey. You can do this!

    Hey! I'm Melanie and I have tried alot too, I'm on this website so we know that it all didn't work. What I love about this website is that it keeps me accountable for every dang thing I put in my mouth....the little things that you don't think are an issue....but they are. So I hope you love this website as much as I do! We are here for you and if you ever find things are tough and you wanna chat/"pick-me-up" then give me a shout.

    Take care,
    Mel
