I've been on & off diets for what seems like forever but turning 40 has really put things into perspective for me. I'm 5'6 & weigh 300+ so it's time to get serious. Motivate me please!

    You can add me! I'm also not new but am in need of more accountability. I had my son 5 months ago, lost all but 3 pounds and now have gained 10 pounds. Yikes!!

    I have MS and started out at 180#. All the meds I take especially the intravenous medication and the Steroid medications made me gain weight and my #'s just kept getting higher no matter what I did. I found this app and its helped a lot. Its like a game trying to make the calories that my doc set for me. I've started eating better and walking in the front yard.so far I have lost ten pounds! I've worked on it a lot. I also use the app I found called My Walk in my apps section. There are several of them by I like this one alot. It can track your steps or how much you've walked outside by using the GPS on your phone. It makes me want to see how far I have walked although it didn't say how fast I was walking that's the only down side. The other downer is I can't find this apps webpage on the internet. It frustrating but I like to see how far I can make that little person walk.

    If I have MS, and I'm working on this and I'm slowly succeeding I know yo can change the way you eat and just start small by walking around your yard once a day. Slow and steady wins the race my dear. You can do this!
