Hi all.
I joined this site because I need all the extra support I can get to stay on track with my eating and fitness habits.
I never had much of a problem controlling my weight when I was younger. I was very active and could whatever I wanted. My mom cautioned me, “Just wait until you’re older! It’ll catch up with you!” And her prediction has come true!
I left a physically demanding job for one where I sit in front of a computer for eight hours a day. I gained nearly 30 pounds since my husband returned home from Iraq. I don’t keep up with the exercise regimen I used to. Now, as I approach my 30th birthday, I find myself having to lose more than 30 pounds. So, I am looking use this Web site and the inspiration of all of you who have benefited from it to turn my lifestyle around; to make a change for the better and to stick with it.

Welcome!!! It is a great way to stay motivated and more accountable for your eating and exercise habits. At first, I thought "Ok, I'll do the diet thing." However, it has turned into a lifestyle change for me. I'm a little addicted to reading about nutrition (if no one has notice yet:happy: ), watching shows about it, FitTV is cool:happy: , and learning as much as I can to stay ahead of the game.0
