  • Hello NEW FROM NC....

    I am also a newbie but I live in Michigan. Today is my first day on the program and can't believe I found this as a "free" android tool! You are right this seems to be a very wonderful program.

    My history is that I have been battling weight loss for most of my life. At one point (after birth to my 2nd child) my weight balloned to a hefty 257 lbs. I am only 5'4" so I was well overweight. I decided to do something drastic and had Gastric Bypass in 2002. I dropped 153 lbs and have been maintaining my weight until earlier this spring. I now have about 10 lbs that I would like to see disappear and need to retrain myself in eating correctly. I am celebrating the big "50" birthday on the 25th of this month and have decided I need to rededicate myself to me and have put myself up to this challenge. Perhaps we can begin this journey together.

    In any case my best wishes to all who have started and/or maintaining their weight using this incredible application.
