Welcome back! The app has helped me a great deal, especially the barcode function. I also set the app to remind me when I haven't tracked breakfast. You said it, "No excuses"...that's my motto!

Hello...I'm a 28 year old professional. During the spring, summer, and fall it is difficult for me to want to hit the gym because it's just too nice out. I skip the gym to hike, run, swim, or kayak. The gym sees me more during the winter months.
