I have found this great site today and joined. My name is Tina Hutchings and I a married to wonderful man and have a blessed life. I have had a weight problem for last twenty years I would say, just up and down all the time now that I am turning the bit 4-0 this year my health has been on my mind alot. I have been very lucky to not have had any yet but I know if I don't change things it will happen. This site just encouraged me so much because I will do good with eating and excercise for about a week but then go right back to bad habits. IT IS TIME FOR A CHANGE!!! It is great to see so many supportive people on here and I hope I can be a help to others on here also. So HELLO EVERYONE AND LETS GET THIS STARTED!!!

    :smile: Welcome! I hope this site can be a resource for information as well as inspriation. I truly find this site helps me focus.. and for me that is a big deal! I have quite a bit going on in my life and it is SO easy for me to lose focus and allow myself to fall low in my priorities.. Again, Welcome.

    Hi Tina, I'm Bobbi, Welcome! I'm a new member also, this is my 4th day and so far it's been great! It really helps having to keep an account of your food intake and exercise. I have found it very easy to follow and it has motivated me to do more exercise than I am required to do. I hope you reach your goal and have fun doing it! If I can be of any help or if you need someone to talk to I'm here.
    We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us!

    Seeing the success that others have had, has encouraged me to stay focused. I too have bounced my weight - skinny in high school, fat in college, skinny after our kids were born, fat as they grew up. MFP has really helped me 1) track my foods on a daily basis, and 2) made it really simple to set my goals and keep doing the things to reach them.

    I encourage you to login frequently, track every little thing, and then sit back and enjoy the ride. You are amoungst friends here! Good luck to you!

    I'm pretty new to this site, but I have noticed that people are very friendly and will help give you the support you need - everyone here is on the same mission, so we're all supportive of each other!
