I saw a friend on Facebook with a post about weight loss using my fitness pal. So here I am trying it out! I signed up this morning and already I am amazed at how I thought I was cutting back, then seeing my calorie tracker......... I really need to relook at what I eat. 1200 doesn't go far! I will be losing 45 pounds.

    I hate that picture of me in my profile. I used it because I didn't realize how the weight was creeping up and how I looked with it on. Before I had my son I was 105. I was always small. So I was in denial about the weight and how it looked on me. So now I am forcing myself to notice and as I lose weight the picture will change!

    Welcome! This has definitely taught me a lot about eating healthier. Not just the calories, but the other aspects like; fat, sodium, protein etc. I also holds me accountable for eating right and exercising regularly. There are great people here to get advice and motivation from too. Be consistent and patient and you'll do great.

    Welcome. This is a fantastic site, with great people who really fill you with confidence. I too am trying to shift the baby weight, after having two and still trying to shift it nearly 15 months later!

    Good luck with the weight loss.

    P.S. Please feel free to add me as a friend! :)
