New to myfitnesspal

Hello!

I am new to myfitnesspal and just wanted to say HELLO! I have always struggled with weight loss and have tried every diet out there. I usually start out doing very well on them only to gain all of the weight back plus some extra.. I have a lot of trouble reaching a goal and maintaining it.

I just had a baby boy! He is 10 weeks old and absolutely amazing! We struggled to conceive him-which may have been due to me being overweight. Looking at his smiling face is all the motivation I need to take back control of my life. I want to be a happy healthy person for him.

I started my journey this week by joining a gym and a weight loss class at the gym. I have kept track of my calories all week and have really stuck with holding myself accountable. The last time I felt really happy with how I looked was 9 years and 90 pounds ago. So that is my goal. I want to lose that 90 pounds and get back to feeling good and proud of the way I look.

Good luck to everyone here on your individual journeys!
