  • I have never thought of myself as an emotional eater. I really don't care about food. For me I escape my emotions with sleep. However, this past week I received some heartbreaking news of a dear loved one who is dying from cancer. After the initial shock and panic had run through me, I found myself in the Little Debbie…

  • I wear quite a bit of denim. Most of my excess weight is carried below the belt. One issue with the denim is the small tab next to the button hole, it tends to still out.

  • I have the iOS version and Android app. While iOS does not show zero it still shows a negative number in red. I'm new here and it completely freaked me out when I put in my first breakfast and was already in the red. Thanks for the info.

  • I too am overwhelmed, but all of these replies have been helpful. Thank you all. I've only been here a week and I don't really recall what gave me the motivation to make a lifestyle change.

  • I love that you added that last part Benedm to your goal "got there and STAYED A MONTH". I think we sometimes get so excited to reach a goal we forget to maintain it.
