So I stopped drinking no more occasional classes of wine or night cocktails and I started to feel better but only a little so I started work in some works outs when I could for mental health more then weight and that started to help but it wasnt until March 5th when I downloaded this App and started to moniter exactly what and how much I was eating and thats when I realized that I honestly ate like crap everyday so I started making better choices about what I put in my body and with this apps help I losg 9.4 since March 5th its now April 5th and I feel great physically and mentally I have a long way to a better me becaus its not about my weight like it used to be now its about my life and a better me!

    Hi Amanda. Doesn't it feel great to take control of your body and mind like you've done? I've also lost weight with this app and Fitbit (it lets me know how active I really am.) I started in October and have lost about 60 pounds. Now I'm concentrating on the macros. I'm still watching calories in and out but now I'm making healthier choices for my particular body. It feels so great achieving goals that I've started setting new ones. Sometimes all it takes is an app like this and determination. I am so happy for you! :)

    Phenomenal job taking ownership of your life! Keep in mind that lifestyle changes, like weight loss, are not linear. You will have successes and failures along the way. Try not to beat yourself up for the tough days and be sure to celebrate all of your successes, not matter how small, you've earned them.

    Awesome Amanda! One step at a time, one day at a time! For a long time I hated the big mirror in the gym and this time around I decided to embrace it To remind myself that it is a process and as I watch myself exercise I'm changing in that process! You are gonna do great! <3
