My oldest son starting using the My Fitness Pal app about five weeks ago to count calories. I was still doing Weight Watchers, but not really doing Weight Watchers. I was paying $18 a month and not getting much for it. It was time to try something new. He was pressuring me to count calories so we could be on the same system. I don't know what clicked in me, but one day I decided to just do it. Best decision ever!
I have been counting calories for almost a month now, and I have lost five pounds. It has been incredibly easy. And this is without much exercise. Ideally I would exercise as well, but my life hasn't been ideal this last month. Hahaha. Collin has lost 25 pounds in five weeks. Wow! We are both very pleased with our progress, and excited to keep going.

If only we could combine our efforts. Exercise is the easy part for me. I just can't stick with the counting calories part. I'm hoping when school starts things will settle down and I can focus more!
You need to get some picks of Collin. :)
Congrats to both of you! I really like myfitnesspal, too, and find that I do much better at careful eating when I am tracking my calories. I am trying to get myself back into the habit again. It's not hard to record it in myfitnesspal once I am making it part of my routine, but I've been dragging my feet a bit about having to be realistic with calorie intake! Thanks for the inspiration. :)
