I'm finally ready.

I've been using MFP app on and off for a while now, but have never actually been on the website. I have been needing some encouragement lately and it just dawned on me that this would probably be a great place for that.


I'm 27 and married with 3 kids. I've have struggle with weight issues my entire life. I did lose 60lbs approx 9 years ago, but life and 3 kids in 4 years added all that plus about 40 more over the last 9 years. Over that time, I.have dieted and lost weighr but every time I would lose focus and gain it back. Actually this time last year I was about 10lbs smaller and I feel so stupid for at least not maintaining that. I have been tracking again for 3 weeks today and I have lost 11.4lbs. I know I am just getting started but I already feel so much better just knowing I'm doing something to escape this prison of fat. Good luck to everyone out there whether your trying to shed a few lbs or half your body weight.

    Firstly I'd like to congratulate you for starting here on the site and looking for friends to help you on your way. This is definitely a good place to be, with the friendliest people.

    Well done for the weight loss so far, I hope this continues.
    If you'd like to add me as a friend or send me a message I'm always happy for this.
