    Welcome!! You'll find that tracking your food with help you in your weight loss goals!! I tried for 2 months to lose weight with exercise and eating better but it wasn't until I tracked my food and watched my calories that I started losing the weight!! Good luck to you on your weight loss journey!!

    Welcome! I'm also from Missouri, from Palmyra to be exact. I've dropped around 50 pounds since Thanksgiving. I'm kind of stuck losing the same 5 pounds over and over again right now. Just be patient and follow the guide and you'll lose the weight.
