I'm a wife and a Mom x4 and work full time. I put myself last usually. But I'm trying to refocus and put my health at a much higher priority. I'd love some accountability from people doing this.
Thanks!

I am right there with you. This is my second go around of trying to use this as motivation and accountability. I too work full time and have a couple kids that ALWAYS rank over myself as a priority. Just like char978mfp, I am needing a refresher of how to join you gals.

Hi Ladies, I've been using my fitness pal for about 5 weeks now, and am looking for friends to help keep me motivated and I will do the same for you. If you want you can add me. I haven't figured out how to add people yet, but it would be nice to have people in the same boat as me. I am a wife, mom of 2 boys, and I work full time. I've always started workout programs and either made excuses to stop or my body would give out. I finally, got to the point where I just got tired of the way I looked and decided I finally needed to put myself, my health, my body first, so I can have a better attitude, more energy, and just be happy with my husband and my boys. When I started, my goals were to go to the gym Monday-Friday, with weekends off as my rest days. I had to do cardio for 40mins daily, and with myfitnesspal totaling my calorie intake at 1290, my goal was to drop 10lbs in 5 weeks. This Saturday will be my first weigh in, and I'm so nervous. This is the first time I've ever stuck to any program, even though this was my own personal goals set for me. I'm so anxious to see if all my hard work has paid off. Anyway, add me if you like, like I said it would be nice to be able to talk with other people in my same situation. Good luck to you all.

How do you add people?

When I started the only thing I did for the first 7 days of logging in was to record my weight and log all my food. I didn't have a scale at the time and was trying to be accurate, but it was intentional to do nothing but log food for a week. With that data, in the second week I began making small adjustments to my eating in ways that were ok for and with me. Soon I started developing goals, such as I wanted to get to low sodium and I wanted to get to high protein. Eventually, I got into a habit of eating a good and nutritious breakfast, a good and nutritious dinner, very little lunch, and achieving high protein and low sodium and low calories. You can achieve your goals, just record everything you eat, expose your food diary to public or friends, and be honest. The real magic happens in your head.
