So excited to be here! (+Bonus Question)

Hi, my name is Jennifer. I came here from another calorie counter app. And, I am enthusiastic to be here.

A little about me: I have been struggling with my weight nearly all of my life. And, I have recently gotten active on my journey.

Now, I have a question for everyone...What motivates you to get healthy? Getting new clothes motivates me to lose weight.

I would love to meet new friends.

Have a blessed day!

Welcome to the MFP community. Shopping for new clothes can be a great motivator.

Welcome to the community! It's great here

I have also struggled the majority of my life, up and down and up and down again, always remaining overweight, but I'm focused this time and determined to get my health and head straight!

New clothes/feeling good in new clothes is a great motivator. My daughter, my best friend (she is doing this with me), wanting to look good for our 30th Birthday Las Vegas trip instead of taking pictures of everything without us in them and wanting to feel better about myself/be a good role model for my little one are my main motivators.

To get healthy, having been diagnosed as pre diabetic, tired of having to adjust where my belly and boobs are to bend over to tie my shoes, to get my balance back, so I stop falling over my own feet.

Those are great motivators! Keep up the good work, and with time you'll make it to your goal.
