edited November 15 in Health and Weight Loss
after being diagnosed at 39 with cervical cancer,
numerous operations, treatments and complications, my weight went up & up & up !!!
i have tried 4 or 5 times in the last 6 years to diet but never made it past 2 weeks
until i got told about this app for my phone
i have now lost 71 pounds in 8 months and cant believe how i have stuck to it
i have just - last week stated to use a cross trainer and i am totally shocked at how long it takes and how i struggle to burn off 100 calories (i use them to have a mini bag of Malteses at night)
i am not telling everyone who wants to lose weight about the app and hope to stick to it for a long time yet, still want about another 30 pounds

good luck to everyone & keep up the good work xxx

    Congratulations on your amazing weight loss!

    The exercise burns are an eye-opener. I used to eat a large Dominos pizza by myself. MFP taught me that you have to cycle 60 miles to burn it off. :open_mouth:
