Hello everyone!!

So I have been trying to loose weight since FOREVER!!!! But this time I have decided to take it slow and make small goals along the way so that it because a lifestyle and easier to maintain. So far I have maintained:
Taking my lunch to school everyday
Working out at least 6 days a week
Drinking 8-10 cups of water

My new goal is to keep track of my calories. I think myfitnesspal is perfect because I am able to download it on my Android, and whenever I eat (or even before to see how many calories I will have left) I can log what I ate.

I have never been a big fan of counting calories or even logging down what I eat, but now that I have started, it opens my eyes as to what I am putting in my body everyday. If I don't want to put it(because it has too many calories) then I don't eat it...

So anyways, I love myfitnesspal, and am trying really hard to stick to my calorie limit.

    You will find this site helps tremendously with helping to keep track of calories as well as how many you've burned for the day. I am so thankful for the inspiration and motivation as well as the support I've found here. :smile:
