in Introduce Yourself
hi im amie. im giving this method a shot, tracking everything on the computer. im on here everyday, so why not?

im tired of being fat. ive been fat most of my life. im not one of those, "oh i need to lose 3 pounds" kinda girls. 3 pounds gone wouldnt even make a difference on me. in the past year, ive lost 60 pounds. im beyond proud of myself for that, but i have so much more to go. im thinking the help and support i could get on here would be a huge help.

    Welcome and congrats on those first 60lbs!! I can only imagine how much more energy you have now :) So far the first 13lbs hasn't made much of a difference on me, but I am starting to feel better and have more energy and everyone on this site really helps to keep me motivated. It is amazing what logging can show you about your eating habits, beyond fat/calorie intake... I'm making better choices regarding sodium, fiber and cholesterol now too. I hope that is site is a great help for you as you continue to work towards your goal. Keep up the great work!

    i really didnt even notice it coming off at first, it was everyone else who pointed it out to me lol...although a few weeks ago, i got into a pair of jeans that i havent worn in 7 years (yes, sadly i am one of those people lol...i hold onto everything) and danced around my room like an idiot. granted i had the muffin top to end all muffin tops, but i got them on!

    Told you! I'm so glad you're doing this. I can't believe how much easier it makes everything. Seeing what I eat in a day now makes me realize how much I was eating before. (Way to damn much!) Keep it up girl! I admire you for doing all you've done!
