Hey gang !
Ive been using the app for a week now and I've already lost 2 lbs !!
I am loving this app so much! I have tried other calorie counters in the past but none that were this fun and Im feeling like I can really stick to this one.
I started my excercise program about 3 months ago and have been eating relatively healthy the whole time, I thought for sure I was losing weight. I never like weighing myself because it has become an unhealthy obsession for me in the past and I just wanted to go with how I felt. After 3 months I felt good, so I decided just to check in with the scale..... nothing. Not even a half of a pound !!! I was so upset !! And after spending the rest of the day researching weightloss, I came across this app !!! And I have learned so much over this past week and am finally seeing results. Just goes to show how all those little things add up !
Anyway, I am looking for likeminded friends to help support eachother on this journey !! Feel free to add me if you are too

Hey there! I’m just starting my weight loss journey, and it seems like we were in a similar boat! I was eating healthy, and ignoring this app ( which I downloaded a couple years ago), and thought for sure I had lost weight... turns out there was more that needed to be done beyond just eating healthy foods, so I’m starting my first big foray into this ( I’m actually committing to it!)3

Welcome to you Both!
Remember to do pictures and measurements too! The scale is only One measuring tool! Glad you've both been making changes and feeling a bit better- thats a Big deal!0
