With taking turns of taking care of my 4 kids ( 2 two legged and 2 four legged) and my hubby I have decided that it is now my turn to learn to take care of myself. I normally put anything and everything first but now it is my turn. I used to be so full of energy and it was hard to get me to stay still but over the past 9 years that as chaged and i want that part of myself back. So that is why I am here! I would love to have friends to help and share this change with!

    Absolutely fantastic! I'm so glad to hear your story and your quest to better your health. I'm in the same boat - always taking care of others that I've neglected caring for myself. Now, it's my turn too! Welcome to MFP!!

    Whole-wheat pasta is generally known to be better for you because whole-wheat pasta contains the entire grain seed. Whole-wheat pasta contains vitamins, minerals and fiber, some of which are lost in the refining process when pasta is made from refined and processed flour.

    Welcome. I have been on MFP for 3 months, starting my 4th. It's the best decision I have made in many years. I have lost weight with diets many times before, but it was never a lifestyle change. This time is different; it's a lifestyle change, not a diet. Good luck on your weight loss journey. Please feel free to add me as a friend; we can help motivate each other.
