in Introduce Yourself
Hi, I am new here and just started my MFP journey today (tracking). I am a 36 year old married mother of 1 and I want to do this right this time... I have been overweight my whole life and am ready to get healthy. I want to be able to do things with my daughter that I should be able to do without getting winded. But most of all I want to do this for myself. I am looking to lose about 80 lbs, I know I will never be skinny but I want to be healthy. Currently I am at about 250 and want to get to 160-170 range... I am Looking for some support and encouragement... thanks to you all.. your stories of inspiration have helped immensely.
