New and Loving it

Ive lost three lbs so far (in a week) and I'm super excited to lose more. Any tips for making it easier!?

Hello I just found this app and I am very excited about losing weight to better my health & prepare for my perfect wedding dress!!!!! Any suggestions on how to make this app work wonders?

Love this site - my sister and I are both using it and comparing notes. I have had great results with following the Paleo Diet. It was recommended by my doctor. I lost 45 lbs on it two yrs ago... have gradually found my way back to being naughty and have gained 20 lbs of it back - HELP!!!!!!!!!! Back on Paleo now and it really just takes about 2 wks of "withdrawal" from sugar, breads, pasta, grains, soda pop, liquor (I still had some!) and excessive dairy and red meat. So what do I eat? Poultry, Fish, eggs, veggies, fruits, dairy in moderation and red meat sparingly. And WATER of course! But the good part is I eat ALL I WANT of these items!!! I can absolutely stuff myself and still lose weight. And once you get thru the withdrawal, you don't crave the sugars and carbs. My doctor lost 30 lbs himself and said he plans for his entire family to be on it for life-- because it is so healthy. He told me the original Paleo diet says no dairy but he feels a little bit is fine -- skim milk, a little yogurt, etc. I would recommend this to anyone!! Especially is you love veggies-- it's a real treat, AND you don't have that bloated feeling all the time becasue you are taking in more protein than carbs. Now after losing I became more active physically and my dr. said at that point to ad in a few more carbs to fuel my activity. Sorry to ramble but it's something I totally believe in!! Good luck everyoen on getting to your goal-- this site is an awesome tool!!

I just started us this app 3 days ago. I have tried the ideal protien diet ( I lost a lot but gained it back after going bananas on food for a while) and slim fast which I was never really able to stick too. I love this app because it shows me everting that is in what I eat. My first day was pretty bad. I didn't change my eating habits that day so I could see what not to do anymore and why. Just in the last two days I have started changing what I'm eating. I have had horrible eating habits my entire life, so yesterday I had half a dr pepper and half a bag of mint m & m's and still managed to stay in my calories. I know that keeping with that it will take me longer to lose weight but it hard to just switch out of bad eating habits and I think it's counter productive to just stop your regular eating habits and change because it only makes you feel deprived of what you really want and you end up reverting and making those eating habits worse then they were before (that is what happened to me at least). So I think that this app is great, you can choose what you eat, and it shows you all the nutrition facts so you can learn what's good to eat and what you should take in moderation.

I am new on here to its been a week and lost 6.6 lbs. I love this site. I am now notice that I am looking at every nutrition label before I decide to eat it or even before i buy it. Wow already made a babystep to a lifestyle change.

Im also type 1 diabetic for almost 2 years now. I know exactly what you mean and what you're going through

I have been on it for almost a month. I lost 4 pounds my first week but then gained it back and i have stayed with 1200 calories per day limit and im walking every day for excercise with it. I think the 4 pounds i lost right away was water weight because nothing has changed. Are people eating only vegetables? Or are they eating whatever they want as long as its still under there calorie goal? So far i am not impressed with this app/site and am wondering if i should eat less calories then it is telling me to. It is hard enough though as it is to stay under 1200 a day, i havent drank anything but water for this whole month to save calories. Any tips would be appreciated because im about to give up on this thing.

WIve been working on my diet for two months now, first month lost 26 pounds,second month didnt loose any. Wasnt taking my water pills. Trying but very hard to be consistant, but in trying.
Snacking is my hardest thing to control at night, im a grazer. Always up looking. Well lets see how this month goes. Ill let you know

wow! good for you!

I'm really loving this app. I've had this app for a while but never really followed through with it. For the past 2weeks I've been following, counting my calories and exercising with support. At first I had gained 2 pounds from my starting weight in the first week but by the second week I've lost 4. I'm proud of myself and happy that I'm already showing progress.
