Hey Everyone,
My name is Katie and I just finished a miserable 5 year graduate program to be a school psychologist....although I now love my job, I gained about 50 pounds in the process...so it's time to get it OFF! I downloaded this app to my phone a few months ago, but I'm getting serious now. I now have evenings free, so I joined a gym and I'm FINALLY tracking my calories. I'm about a week into actually "doing it right" and need to keep motivated!

I'd love to get some people to keep me accountable! Who's in?

    I know how you feel! I just finished veterinary school this May and it took a toll on my body. You will definitely do much better with your evenings off! Look for my add!

    Welcome Katie, if you stick to this app you will see the weight come off! btw if your gym has a Zumba class try it, it's an awesome way to sweat off the pounds and shape the body! Best luck Lovey

    Hi Katie!

    I'm entering my graduate program for Marriage Family Therapy!! School can definitely get crazy and take all of your concentration! Good for you for doing it right! Let's motivate each other!
