I bought an Android phone a week ago and downloaded the myfitnesspal app since I'd like to lose about 20-25 pounds. Less than one week later, I've already lost four pounds. My goal was only one pound per week, but I'll take it! :wink:

What I found so far:

1. I hit the gym daily because I like the extra calories that exercising affords me. Burning 300+ calories at the gym lets me eat an extra snack after dinner so I don't go to bed so hungry.

2. I am not necessarily eating healthier, but I'm just eat smaller portions of 'crap'. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

3. The ability to barcode scan in food is AWESOME.

So far, I'm liking it! :smile:

    You'll find the first week is only water retention and not weight loss... but well done :)
