Hi all! I was a MFP regular for nearly two years and in that time was able to drop 50lbs, which was fantastic! Right around that time though I realized that I was getting slightly fanatical about logging my food. One night, as I was lying in bed, I realized that I had forgotten to log my pre-workout snack of half a pear, 6 whole wheat crackers and a tsp. of all natural peanut butter (2.5 hours before a two hour kickboxing session). Despite the healthy nature of the snack and the fact that it was clearly needed at the time and used wisely during my workout, I got so angry at myself for not logging it that I was barely able to sleep that night... That's when I decided it might be time to take a break from logging for a while. It's been roughly 4 months now and I feel that I'm ready to get back into it full force, seeing as I still have 15lbs to go to reach my goal.
The purpose of my post today is to invite anyone with a similar story or goals, or anyone on this wonderful journey to get fit and healthy to become a part of my friends list so that we can provide each other with that daily dose of motivation we could all use! I look forward to meeting you all!!
