Hello
My name is Keith. I’ve had a fluctuating weight issue for many years. I’ll gain a bunch, work very hard and drop the weight only to have it all come right back. I need to stop the cycle. Would love to have some support along the way. I’ve been using the app for 22 days now to track my food. It’s helped a lot.
