    You can do it! I know this work I have already been doing this for 3 weeks and am doing great, I'm sure you will to. Just remember don't cut out all of the foods you love out cold turkey or you will quit. Feel free to add me!

    Welcome! Take this as an extra motivation! I have just told my parents and my bf, not to any of my friends, because I don't want to hear any comments or give them any expectations..I just want to see their face when I'll lose weight!

    Ive been on and off different calorie counting programs/apps for the past 3-5 years. This one looks like its going to stick but only if the support keeps coming. The sig other doesnt like the app, shes never really had much trouble eating healthy anyhow. I have a few 'friends' on here but would appreciate anyone who wants to help me/help them with motivation and a little kick in the butt every now and then when I am falling off the wagon. I promise to do the same! Everyone feel free to add me, and good luck!

    I totally feel ya! I don't have any support either b/c all of my family members are skinny! They tell me to push away from the table and run around the block a few times. Can you feel the love? Yeah, me either. Soooo we are in this together and we can show those "naysayers"!

    The support here is amazing!! You can totally do this... it's not easy... there will be days where you feel like giving up... those days I look at the success stories on here, and I go back and look how far I've come and know I don't want to go back.... words of advice...take each day at a time... don't weigh every day or even every other day... take your measurments, and take progess pictures... pictures are worth a thousand words... and you will be glad you did!!!
