    Great to see you here, good luck on your journey. Set your daily intake goals and then use the tool to select meals that will keep you under it. Don't have a meal and then enter it, you'd be surprised how this helps. Well, it did for me anyway.

    Hey 365, I can fully relate. I lost about 30 pounds last year so I could have a knee replaced. Got that done, great recovery, now I want the other knee done. However, I gained the 30 lbs back and am having a difficult time getting back on track. I know I CAN do it - cuz I did. I know I WANT to it cuz I want the other knee replaced.

    Retired. Just turned 70. Live alone. No valid excuses for not going to the gym and eating healthy. Although, I just had a delicious, healthy salad! Maybe today is my new start!!!!

    Right there with you Sister! I’m am just starting the same journey with 100ish to lose. Tired of using it all as armor and looking to free myself from the burden.

    This quote got me recently as I can totally relate: “You never change until you step out of your comfort zone. Change begins at the end of your comfort zone” (Roy T Bennett).

    Sending kudos to you on your kickstart! You got this Girl! 💕
