Hi,
My name is Donna, from Brisbane Australia, I'm 47 and 120kg. I have used MyFitnessPal as a calorie counter and a diet aid but I haven't really gotten into the whole Community side of it. But now I am wanting to change that as I believe that having support is a key ingredient to moving to a healthier lifestyle.
It has taken me years to let go of the "weight" side of health but I have now decided to concentrate on getting healthier and fitter and hopefully weight loss will come along with it, but if not then so be it.
I was diagnosed with bowel cancer 3 years ago, and had a partial bowel resection, chemo for 6 months and I am now 2 years post chemo and I have no intention of ever getting it back again.
Anyway, I hope to meet some like minded people in my journey to a healthier life.
Cheers
Donna
