New here, but not new to weight loss :)
I lost 25 lbs in high school, but had a baby and gained it all back... Plus almost 50 more. I've lost 60 lbs since then, and want to keep it up! Just created an account, hoping it will help me track protein and fiber and get more of that in. :)

Hi! I'm not new to fitnesspal but...
I'm here to stay this time. Earlier in the year I used this like almost everyday and lost close to 10 pounds. I was so excited about it that I stopped and kept the weight off for a while but unfortunately stopped and then gained it back. Like I said this time I'm here to stay. Stay on myfitnesspal and keep the weight off!

Finally making myself a priority. Not without guilt, though
Hi everyone, new to all of this. I've spent my entire adult life putting others first, finally trying to do what I want (and need) for me. As a wife, mother of 2, and step-mom to 2 I'm still having a hard time with feelings of guilt and selfishness... Any tips and advice would be greatly appreciated!

New here, also
Hi, my name is Jamie and I'll be 24 in January. I just had a beautiful daughter 4.5 months ago, and I'm finally tired of carrying around the baby weight. If I'm being honest, I guess I started gaining when I married my husband 3 years ago... I've always had a terrible body image and low self-esteem, but I want to set a…

New year...new me!
So I've had a rough year to say the least. My stomach has paid for it. I get emotional, I eat. Generally I eat all the wrong things. I went from being a cheerleader in high school to working 4 jobs through college. to working a job where I sit for 8 hours. I went from a pant size of 0 to 6. My cholesterol is now 219. Time…

(psssst) Look...it's the "new girl"
Yo. :) I am trying this out for the first time after hearing a success story from a co-worker. Currently the hand-held journal I am keeping has been successful at nothing beyond containing written documentation of every time I've screwed up and given in to cravings. It's a neatly-lined and doodled-upon graveyeard of my…
