I'm 36 years old and decided in 2014 that I had to do something about my weight. After having my daughter 3 years ago, I couldn't get any of the weight I had gained off and then things started getting bad with me gaining around 70lbs in the past 3 years. After visiting with my doctor and finding out I had a severely screwed up thyroid, sleep apnea, and really bad cholesterol, I decided to have the surgery. 
 
It seemed to me at first like I was making a really desperate move. But as I thought and learned more, I decided that it is going to be worth all I'm working for to be able to do simple things with my daughter like sit on the floor and play or run around and play tag. 
 
I'm hoping this app will be a tool for me to lean on when I need a boost, information, or just to vent.  :)
