Hello from Columbus Ohio

amberlynnkitty

Hi there, Im Amber and Im fat.

Im looking to remedy that. I've always been really bad about what I eat and how I take care of my body. So now I'm faced with a crossroads. Either keep on the path im going down and ruin the rest of my life. My career, my relationships, my mental capacity to feel any kind of emotion, or do something about it and feel better, look better, preform better..

I decided last week that Im going to join the US military. In order to survive boot camp, I need to help myself get to where I can actually run for more than 10 feet without keeling over in breathless pain.

So here I am, using MyFitnessPal.com to help me in my journey to a better me. I have yet to read through the forum so excuse me if I've done something wrong. As soon as I get home from work, Im going to begin looking through the forum to search for questions and answers. Hopefully, my journey can be an inspiration to someone. We'll see

Thanks for having me, MFP. It's good to have a starting point.

Amber

Hey Amber,

I am going to send you a friend request. You've made some big life decisions! I have been through Army basic training, and served for about 10 years. My husband is still active duty. You can achieve these goals if you set your mind to it. This site is awesome! Good luck to you!
