Oregon girl trading WW for MFP!

Options
Hello friends!

My name is Mary and I'm 28 years old and love cats way too much! Anyways, I am new to using MFP on a regular basis. I have spent the last 3 months in weight watchers and wasn't invested in the program until about 2 weeks ago and now am losing my membership due to financial reasons. I have finally started to lose weight, I'm down 1.6 lbs since last week's weigh in! It doesn't seem like much but I haven't seen my weight drop in 3 years. So this is a big deal. I need a new community to support me through this journey and have heard great things about MFP.

I have about 100 lbs to lose and it feels impossible right now so I put my goal weight as 200lbs. I want my goals to be obtainable. Any one else feel me on this?

Anyways, I live in Eugene, Oregon and it would be great to meet other people in the pacific northwest with similar goals. :) Feel free to friend me. I'm looking forward to building a new community here and learning more about nutrition and calories and being healthy!
