    Welcome,

    I am 3 days into using the app and this is my first day on this forum. Looks like the three of us are pretty much in the same boat.

    Single mom here, and I have a 12 year old daughter. She was my driving motivation to start as she was worried about my health. She got to that age when she realized the reality of my health if I didn't lose weight. Now I'm doing it for both of us. :) I've been a member since August, lost just over 60 pounds, and I log daily. Add me if you'd like another friend.

    I love your attitude. I keep telling my other half that he needs to not only get fit & healthy for himself, but, for our daughters as well.

    As a daughter who lost her father from complications of obesity, and a lack of care about his health, thank you for thinking of your kids.
