I've been using MyFitnessPal now for a few months. So I figured I should get on here and get involved with the community. So far it's been a really positive experience and I'm looking for friends to share my journey with.

I started using this app after I had to have a spinal fusion in my neck. I easily gained 50 lbs between the pre op not being able to use my arm and the post op recovery. I was shocked when I went to the doctor and found out I weighed 300 lbs. I'm now down to 270 thanks to this app.

My other inspiration is my one year old son. I really want to be healthy for him. So he can have a fully functional healthy parent. He deserves that and I'm motivated to put the work in.

I've always had problems with my weight. I never could find a diet I could stick with. This app has changed my life. I am so grateful.

So I'm looking for friends. I'll admit I'm not perfect at this dieting and exercise yet. I have on and off days. I'm always trying to improve but I definitely have my slip ups.

So thank you for reading this and I look forward to meeting you.

Thank you

Nelson
