Just joined this week!

I'm very excited about joining. I feel very motivated for the first time in I don't know how long! I would love to make some friends on here, for I feel that it will help keep me motivated to have someone to talk about the wacky world of weight loss with lol :) Just a little about me...I'm 24, I work as a research specialist in a neuroscience lab. I live in Charleston, SC (so if anyone in the area would like to chat I would love that as well) and I enjoy a host of activities such as reading, traveling, swimming, amusement parks!, shopping, movies...etc. Please feel free to message me!

    Thanks!!
    Yes, you are absolutely right. I have tried these online calculators before and it was so exacerbating. They wouldn't have a lot of the foods I ate so I would constantly have to look it up before I put anything in my mouth. That made me a little obsessive and by two weeks I was just exhausted by it. I feel like this site makes it so easy and just going on and putting in my food and exercise makes me motivated to eat right and move my butt!
