Excited to Start

Aub_C

Well I guess i'll start by saying HI. My name is Aubrey and i'm 29 years old. I have a lot of work to do and I think I have finally found the motivation to get started. My dad was diagnosed with Diabetes about 3 months ago and he is really struggling. I hurts me to see him in so much pain and not to be able to play with my son. I am a lot like my father in so many ways, but this I want to change. When I am his age I want to enjoy my children and grandchildren and be able to live a happy healthy life. I figure no better time to start then now. I fear that if I don't make changes now then my future is clear. Hopefully I can stay motivated and become who I need to be.

All it takes is the first step! You will find MFP to be an awesome place, and if you're like me (not that motivated , you'll be SURPRISED at how easy it is to just get going.....................

Logging your food is a great way to gain perception of what you're eating, and ways to change it.
Logging any exercise is also very motivating, as it gives you more calories you can eat

Enjoy - and welcome!

Welcome, anyway I can help just let me know.

Also, my Mother was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes and I worked with her on her food plan and we totally put it into remission. I can give you some info to help your Dad, like I did my Mom.

I have been in recovery from food addiction for over 19 years and have spent over that time working on food plans within my own program and my clients.

I would be more than happy to be a part of your support system.

Hugs,
