I'm less worried about the actual number than the fact that I can now see it going down! You can do it.

Have had mine since January. Really like it!

I confess that I can be overly nice, and sometimes end up getting taken advantage of.

I can neither confirm nor deny such statements ...

Welcome!

That's awesome. Congrats!

I have now!

Thought I'd share a bit of my story as it always helps me to talk about it. I've always been heavy. When I was younger, at least I was active enough to keep it from getting out of control. But as I got older, that activity decreased and I ballooned up. In December, I got myself a Fitbit and was determined to increase my…

I'd flirt with his wife ... if I had any idea who that was, and if it didn't make Josh mad lol.

This is me. I'll sit in a chair and tap my foot and play phantom drums on the table all night, but I'm not getting out on that floor.

Prediabetic here as well. Last two A1C tests were 6.1 and 6.2. Working with my doctor on weight management. She gave me a target number of carbs for the day, along with a calorie limit.

Welcome! A positive attitude is so important, and it looks like many of you already have it.

One day at a time and one meal at a time is what works for me as well. I celebrate each pound that comes off and try not to look at the many that remain.

Welcome and good luck!

When I first started and cut the calories, I wasn't often feeling hungry between meals. In speaking with my doctor, she actually *wants* me to start feeling hungry because that means my metabolism is kicking in. Just starting to get to that point now after 4 months using the app and dieting. Not fun to feel hungry, but I'm…

I'm an actuary ... which is a fancy name for a math geek.

I said it once before I meant it, and I regretted that. Nothing but painful when the relationship didn't evolve as I thought it would. Since then, vowed to make sure I meant it before I said it.

Welcome and good luck!

Sounds like you got some good advice. You're on the right track!

LOL ... keep that best friend around!

There's a lot of mischief behind that smile. Why not?

Is there any room left in that closet?

Two different people told me I made their day today. That was awesome!

That's awesome. You can do it! And thank you for your service <3

Had a friend of mine tell me late one afternoon that I had a rip in my pants. Immediately, my mind raced through every meeting I had that day. Of course, it had been a busy day and I had multiple sit down conversations with folks where I likely was flashing them this huge hole in my crotch. :o

Congrats on the 40 most definitely!
