I've been a member of MFP for the 3rd day now, and I'm so impressed and touched by the warmth, support, and ease of use. I, like so many of you, have battled weight loss and healthy life choices throughout my life--and I feel this is a tool that will help me process, understand, relate to, overcome, and maintain thru my life. Having just lost my mom to cancer 3 short months ago, I spent the past nearly 2 years struggling to ignore the gradual weight gains ensuing from an increasingly stressful work life and my mom's deteriorating state and my role as a prime caregiver to both my aging parents. As a result, I look back and detested the 52lbs I put back on (I had gastric bypass that nearly killed me over 5 years ago but slimmed me down nicely and I had kept it off for a few years successfully). Sunday I resolved to REALLY work to do something about it. Posting something on FB, an ol' pal of mine across the country messaged me telling me about this great app. So I checked it out right away, as she was an answer to a prayer--and HERE I AM :) I have lost a few pounds so far, but I'm in this for the long haul, and I'm so glad to have the opportunity to blog and creatively express and connect to others sharing my similar challenges. Wishing you all the very best of life, health, and happiness--and of course, SUCCESS :)
Thanks!
Eliza
