New to MyFitnessPal & loving it thus far...

theemstress

Hello there. Hope this message finds you all doing well.

Whether it's 1 lb, 10 lbs, or 100 lbs, losing weight is never easy. But having myfitnesspal seems to help, I'm digging this site! I finally got one of these "smart" phones, keeping me on track.

So, I'm trying to lose another 10 lbs. I enjoy leading a pretty active & healthy lifestyle. I've reached a good number of my goals over the past 5 years, but I'm forever a work-in-progress. I would like to lose the last 10. I've adopted a pretty good healthy diet, but I do very much enjoy the occasional ice cream, pizza, and a good pale ale too.

I find much inspiration from your success as well. Please let me know of any bits of inspiration you've found along the way.

Best wishes and success,
Emily

Cheers and hello Amber! Thanks for the message. I've check out some of the success. There are some great photos! I'll look you up on FB soon. I try to do the Facebook only at night. Too many distractions during the day as it is....
