New and need friends

Options
I have been logging into MFP for over two weeks now and have been exercising. I always thought that counting calories was for eccentric, excessive types and have recently learned that it works for me. I am down 7 lbs and have felt really motivated until I became sick on Monday evening. I still feel sick and want to get back into the gym and don't want to lose my momentum and motivation. I could use some reinforcements...

I really want to do this. I spent all my life feeling self conscious about my weight and want to be healthier. I spent a good amount of time reading these posts last Saturday and grew really inspired. Your stories are really amazing... I want my story to be as well.

Thanks for reading.

Jennifer

    Hello newbie!

    I'm rather new myself, or at least to posting. I think getting involved here is the best way to get motivated. Thanks for joining MFP and good luck to you!
