Newbie here
Hello. I am new here. I am coming off the Noom program, and I have been doing Pahla B (basically for menopausal women) and other Youtube exercise videos, plus some walking when the weather is decent. I am looking for a good place to log my meals and see what else is going on!

Its just not easy to lose on my own
How many times have I started to lose weight only GAIN IT BACK? This has been a life time struggle. Oh I know I am not alone. If it were easy I'd of been at goals over 8 years ago. Being older it's surely not easy, but I also did not find it easy when I was in my 40's or even 50's. I first gained weight in my mid 30's, but…

I could use some support.
The first time I got extremely serious about getting fit, watching what I ate, etc, I lost over 70lbs but I became obsessive about it. Since then I've unfortunately gained some of it back and I've off and on tried to get back to where I was but I was also in a really rough spot (and relationship) in my life. Now that my…

Homeless, Healing & Starting Over. Am I crazy? (Semi-Long Read)
So, my name is Bryce and I felt this is the most appropriate place to ask for advice.

It'd be…
