Hey everyone! I'm new to the online site but have been using the app on my phone. I've been on my journey now for 5 weeks on saturday and have already lost 14 lbs.!! I'm so excited. I've tried to lose weight before but of course failed. I really believe this time is different because I just got up one day and said I have to live a healthy lifestyle and the next day I started! My starting weight was 253.6 lbs at 5' 3" and as of today I'm am at 239.4 lbs. My goal weight is 170 and unlike all my failed attempts I'm not trying to rush the weight off. I finally understand that it will take time to get there. SO thanks for reading and good luck to you as well on your journeys!

    Welcome, and great job! I have lost 22 lbs since june 21st, and am also thrilled! I have never lost that much weight in the past, and I don't feel like I am starving, or doing this just for a short period. I am in this for the long haul, and if u r too, feel free to friend me. We can help motivate each other...
