  • First of all WELL DONE YOU FOR LOSING 50lbs!!! That is some achievement. My weight has fluctuated since my last child nearly 8 years ago. Thanks to this app and joining the gym I'm 14lbs off my goal weight. I've lost 42lbs so far. When you stress about things your body can retain the weight. Go out and have some fun. Run…
