My cousin told me about this app so I decided to check it out. I'm one week in and obsessed with logging in what I eat. Im amazed that I've been keeping up with it and sticking to the calorie diet. I'm a breast cancer survivor and had gained significant weight last year going through chemo. The medication I have to take daily doesn't help my weight either. I feel so uncomfortable in my own skin from my weight gain. My goal is to lose a good 30 lbs. 35 lbs would be even better!! From reading other people's posts, it's giving me confidence that I can do this!!!
