in Introduce Yourself
Hi, my name is Wendi. I am a 38 year old single mother from the Orlando area. Almost 5 months ago, I had a life-changing event happen in my life. It made me wake up and realize how much I had neglected myself. In these last 5 months, I have lost 49 lbs by mostly running and eating right. Oh yeah, btw, did I mention I work for the mouse, too! So I am very active outdoors anywhere from 8-14 hrs a day. I am now at a healthy weight, however, I definitely would like to lost at least 20 more pounds. I have been struggling a lot lately with the weight not budging, so I have decided to take a look at my food intake. I think I might have slowed down my progress by not eating enough. People are always complimenting me at work on how much weight I have lost. I always joke and tell them it's from only eating bananas and yogurt! However, it really is the truth. That is usually what I eat throughout the day, every 2 -3 hours. Today I found about myfitnesspal on a runner's blog and they said how much it has helped them. I am excited to try this tool and to gain any helpful knowledge you all might have for me on my quest. Thanks so much...
