Hey everyone! My name is Ricky and I just discovered this app today. I love it so far! Today was my first day of healthy living since...pfft 2007/2008!?

I am 23, married and 40lbs heavier than I was when I graduated in 2007! I was a soccer player and avid runner, logging 25-35 miles a week! I used to think I had one hell of a metabolism too... But I learned otherwise after I stopped running and playing soccer. I went to County College, stopped playing ball and packed some "comfort pounds".

Well... I'm tired of not being able to play summer ball with my friends and being disappointed with what I see in the mirror. Time to get back to being me!

    Good Luck!

    Good that you are making the effort now. I had a similar experience but when my children were born, taking care of them took all my time. Next this I knew, I was 40 and almost 100 lbs heavier than I was at 18.

    I am slowly getting back to a healthy weight.

    All the best for you journey.
