Forget the freshman 15, how about the post-graduation 15?

Hello
Hi everyone. I'm Tina. Been using this to log food for a few month off and on but taking it more seriously now. I really want to track what I'm eating and see how it makes me feel. Lost 15 pounds since the beginning of May by really paying attention to what I'm eating, logging food, adding exercise and getting off sugar.

Hello
I’ve had this app for a while but never used it seriously. I’m at 148 lbs and my target is 135. I’ve joined Orange Theory and while it’s helping, I need to eat right to really make a difference. Looking for friends who can inspire each other through this journey. Good luck to you all!

New to this
22, used to eat whatever I wanted and keep some abs. Doctors put me on meds that I didn't need and ruined my metabolism, causing me to gain close to 45 pounds. I never really learned how to do any of this because I didn't need to. If anything people joked I needed to gain weight, but I feel it was too much.

Every time I log my weight the app tells me that I will lose about 10 pounds in 5 weeks, but it doesn’t happen. I am healthy and active. I’m so frustrated and don’t know what to…
