Hi there. I was referred to this site by my Dietician. I love it already. I'm a single mom of an 11 yr old girl. I've successfully lost weight in the past on my own with sites similar to this (paying ones tho :( ) I know I can do it again. I've lost 15 lbs on my own so far since September. My goal is to lose the last 15 with the help of this site, my dietician and my personal trainer.
My issues are hypertension and a family history of diabetes. My goal is to climb Fisher Peak, a local mountain here, in the summer.
I also want to instill good eating habits in my daughter now so she can carry them with her throughout life and break the chain of heart disease and bad health that has plagued my family for generations.

I look forward to chatting with you all. Hopefully I can make a few new friends too!! Win Win all around!!

    Welcome!! I discovered this site 10 days ago and love it. It makes it so easy to know exactly how many calories you have consumed in food and burned off with exercise. I am trying to lose about 10 pounds, but mostly get in better shape. Somehow over the winter I developed a "muffin top":mad: and it has to go!!! Best of luck with reaching your goal!!!

    Feel free to add me as a friend and we can help each other through this journey. :smile:
