I've lost over 15lb since April by being very strict about my diet. I wasn't overweight before, but I wanted to be around 6% body fat. I use Happy Scale (for iPhone) and weigh myself everyday and use that to really push myself to eat healthy for the day. It's been tough and I've had to work hard at it, but I have only a few more pounds to go until my goal.

Congrats on the successful weight loss! Haven't tried Happy Scale, but do you think the diet is long-term sustainable?

I've been going low carbs for a while with good success, but the second I have momentary weakness and cave, I put on weight so fast.

Hi niveus,

I'm the guy that makes Happy Scale. Glad to see it's been helpful to you. Would love to get a fellow HN-er's thoughts on what could be improved... if you have any, drop me a line at [email protected].
