edited September 21 in Introduce Yourself
Hi....I have been on MyFitnessPal since July 13th 2010, just now figuring out how to get around the site and realized that I have not introduced myself here.

I'm 46 y/o. I'm a proud mother of 2 grown children (ages 23 and 20), the proud grandmother of a beautiful 16 month old granddaughter. I have a great son-in-law and my sons girlfriend is wonderful. I have great friends and a beautiful life. I have a chesapeake bay retriever "Jack" and a quaker parrott "Tuppie" and I love them very much too.

I've been an EMT at my local rescue squad for the past 6 years and I truly love the volunteer work of helping others ( for the most part during the worst time of their lives) when they need to call 911.

I put on about 30 lbs during the stress of my divorce. I need to get motivated and stay focused on losing this weight.

Look forward to chatting with you soon.

Darlene

    Nubyia.....Glad your back. My daughter told me about this site. I'm really enjoying the accountability of knowing that what I eat.....I'll have to document. If I don't want to have to document.....then I know I don't need to eat or drink it. lol

    Good luck and keep in touch.
