Hello everyone!

I would like to introduce myself. My name is Katrina and in the beginning of November something just CLICKED with me and I knew I wanted to start living healthier. I do not have the healthiest relationship with food- so that is mostly what I am working on- learning to listen to when my body is hungry and fuel it with good food, and listrening to when it is full and stop eating!

I started my journey at 409lbs- yes I know- a lot...but that is ok......I started doing something that is good for myself- as of this morning I weighed 375.2 so I am making progress. I really love myfitnesspal- it helps me a lot!!!!

I look foward to getting to know you all better!

Thanks for reading!

Warmly,
Katrina:smile:
