    Hi Sara! I'm Donna, and I'm on this journey with ya! I've lost almost 26 lbs. so far. It's coming off slow, but that's the way to keep it off. Holler if you ever want to talk! :)

    Hi Sara, I'm Elizabeth and this is my first day using this app. I am 205 and want to get down to 160. I am also anemic, so I know that I need to eat more healthy. So, I am hoping that being held accountable helps with both issues. Good luck!

    I am on the journey, too, as are so many people. I keep telling myself, "Do Something Today that Your Tomorrow's Self Will Thank You For!" 6 days a week, I am in the gym. Everyday, I am counting my calories, carbs, protein, and fats. It's working.

    I lose a pound, smile, and repeat. As long as you don't quit, your trajectory is a successful one. You will do it, if you want to. That's really what it boils down to.

    Hi Sara, I'm Courtney. I've been on MyFitness Pal on and off for a couple of years. This time I have been faithfully on it since July!

    I know what you're going through. I too have a lot of weight to lose. 94 pounds left...I've lost 20 so far.

    SW - 265

    You can do this! Don't get discouraged. Just remember what you're doing this for: Your HEALTH!! Good luck on your journey. :)

    I'm with you Sara, I'm back on MyFitness Pal after a long hiatus. I saw a recent picture and almost passed out from embarrassment. I'm 5"7', 210 and want to get down to 150.
