Goal! For now... 70 pounds lost and moved to a lovely condo in onederland!
It's been quite a journey... About 7 months ago, I was touring my office building. I have a new job and among the things offered in my building is free use of a gym so I went to have a look see.

Feeling empowered!
Hey there! It's been only three days and two pounds for me, but I am loving this site and system. My wife turned me on to it after I showed some interest in Weight Watchers. It appeals to the tech nerd side of me with the android app :-) At the same time, there is a very powerful element in logging what I have been eating.…

This is ceretainly not my first time losing weight. I am a world class dieter. Every diet I have ever tried has worked for me. Losing…
