Hi Jenny here I'm 28 years old recent horticulture graduate and I'm trying to lose weight and gain muscle! I'm 5'7 and started at 221, I started gaining weight about five years ago when my husband and I moved into together, he's over six feet and has an appetite! I also had a sit down job with lots of school work. I originally lost 20 lbs before I started this app, since I've started on here I've lost 6 lbs! I go to the gym with lots of cardio and strength training! I'm a stress eater and I have a terrible sweet tooth but this app really makes me think twice with the calories! I'd love to have a support system and I'd like to help others as well! So please add me!!

    Hey girl! Don't get down I do too! I have the worst sweet tooth, I work out with my fiancé
    And we both decided and the beginning of each month is when we go out and get ice cream, and it really makes it easier on me, I've been drinking tons of water and a tea here and there, I've been walking 30 minutes Monday and Wednesday,Friday and doing ab and butt workouts after! I've lost 5 lbs in about a week and half:)
    Don't let that sugary goodness pull you down! Get that body you've always dreamt of:) I will always be willing to give you uplifting quotes and talks anytime you need:) good luck to you :)

    My husband gets away with so much it kills me! I'm like if I look at that I can feel the pounds adding to me! Thank you though for the encouragement! Good luck to you as well! :smiley:
