I am new to this site I started this 3 days ago. I seem to really like it so far. I have alot of weight to lose and need the support to help me get there. I am a hairdresser and have been married for almost 11 yrs we have 4 children that are my whole life. I am doing his for my children because I want to be around for them for many years to come.

  • Hi Ladybug!
    Welcome to the site. :) I am returning to myfitnesspal after being gone for about a year. The first time I stuck with the program and lost almost 20 lbs! It was a real eye opener to actualy have to record all the food you are eating on a daily basis. Unfortunately, life got crazy and I let my emotions, and my eating, get the best of me so I am back. I am hoping to lose the weight for my kids and husband too. Best of luck to you!

    It's a great tool in your journey to a healthier you. Awesome to track food/exercise. The blog is a great place to vent your day.
