Vertically challenged slow loser here!

Options
Hi everybody! I'm new to MFP and I'm so happy I found it as a recommended app on my new phone! I used to use an Excel spreadsheet to track all my stuff, can you imagine? Wow, this place is really great, so super easy and I'm loving it!

I'm 5'0" tall, 42 years old and for the last 8 years have had an extremely slow metabolism. I've got quite a bit to lose and a tough road ahead, so I'm lacing up my walking shoes and getting on with it!

    You can do it, trust me. I am 5'3" and have lost 53 lbs. Remember, this is a process, and it takes time. Slow and steady wins the race!!!!:smile:
