This site is my inspiration

I never thought it would work for me, but I have to say, tracking my food and exercise is making me keep doing it. I have said I would work out before, always started and quit within a week or two because I had no motivation and/or medium to measure results. But after a month on here, I can truthfully say I think I will be able to stick with it now. Not only because of the ability to track my food and excercise, but also from reading the inspirational and sometimes sad tales that you all put out there. So I say thanks to everyone that participates, and thanks to the creator of mfp (is that Mike?). Keep up the great work and next year, when I start my next season pitching for my over 30 mens league, I might actually be able to go for more then 4 innings before I feel like I died! I'm definately recommending this site to others.
So far, after 1 months, I have not only lost about 8 lbs. but I have upped my running from 1 mile at about 6.5 mph to 2 miles at about 7.5 mph, and my belly is going down!

Anywho... keep up the awesome job banks!!!0 -
Outstanding Banks you are seriously just as much of an inspiration as anyone here.
We are glad to hear from you and your successes.0 -
Totally agree 'banks'. This site seems to be a great way to stay on track. Logging in my food and exercise everyday is like having to answer to someone, and makes me think a little bit more before I put something in my mouth!
I have been on for less than a week, but it has already suprised me where all those hidden calories are. Supposed to reach my goal Nov 21...we'll seeeeeee......0
