    Hi! I too have been a member, but in the same boat. Now my motivation is developing healthy exercise and eating habits. Because I did not maintain healthy habits, I lost my core muscle strength and now have to exercise EVERY DAY! If you want, I would enjoy the opportunity to establish some accountability standards with you!

    Hi everyone, my name is Nicole. I have been a yo yo dieter for years, I'm ready for a life style change. I did a "no junk food challenge" in January and did great since I had support of other friends, now everyone is done the challenge and I've slipped back to my old ways. I would like some support from other people also.

    Hi, nice to meet you :) I've been feeling much the same! I signed up a couple of years ago and never used the app, till a few days ago, but it certainly has been helping me see what I need to do to shed some pounds and stay accountable!

    Hi folks! My name is Alex. I yo-yo dieted for years. I played ice hockey competitively for several years and I was on the ice every day. I was really in shape! When I started college, I started playing less and less due to my time consuming major (biology). I have gained almost 50lbs in the past 3-4 years because I still ate like I was exercising vigorously every day. This past fall, my sister began working out and eating well. She was losing all kinds of weight and my competitive nature kicked in! In early January, I started eating better and making time for myself at the gym (retro fitness is amazing btw!). Something clicked and I'm so happy to be getting my body back. So far, I've lost about 20lbs!!! I still can't believe how good that feels to say! My sister is approaching 50lbs lost! What an animal! I have no plans to slow down. My sister/workout buddy and I are signed up to run our first 5k this summer :smiley:
