New around here!

Hi everyone

Just wanted to say hi! I started on MyFitnessPal about a week ago when I downloaded the ap for my phone. I absolutely love it! It is so easy to keep track of what I am eating, and I am excited that for once I am sticking to a diet! I am already losing weight (although the tracker on my profile still says zero-- why is that?)!

PS, check out my blog entry!

Thanks
Tala

Oh, I didn't get any hellos! Maybe I should tell you a little bit about myself?

I am 25 year old woman living in Brooklyn, going to Grad School part time for my MA in anthropology. During the day I teach art, movement, and preschool classes to kids ages 1 to 4. I love my job! The only downside is that I have to travel all over the city each day to get to different classes-- sometimes I take the subway six times in a single day!

I used to grab something on the go between classes (a slice of pizza or a sandwich), but part of my new diet is making a healthy, vegan lunch and bring it with me to work. The only problem is there is no where for me to eat it most days! Yesterday, I ate my lunch in the park.... the sunshine fooled me in to thinking I could eat outside in 30 degree weather!

Looking forward to hearing from some friends who are also trying to turn their lives around
