Was at my heaviest weight of 227 lbs for my 35th birthday in August. Went through a period of depression and lost about 10lbs. Never was really eating bad, maybe just larger quantities than I should have. Recently went to the doctor in December and my sugars were categorized as "borderline." Diabetes runs in my family and the last thing I want to be is diabetic. I knew I had to make a change in a big way to lower sugars, carbs and my weight to finally get back to my goal of 130 lbs. I have been getting creative with my cooking as I would still like to enjoy the food I love, but just in moderation. My co-worker recommended the app and he uses it regularly to help watch as he is a type 2 diabetic. I've never been one for calorie counting, but this app makes it easy to do. Now granted I only started recording at like 207 lbs or so, but I'm looking at the whole picture since August.
