Namaste!

A friend of mine recommended MyFitnessPal two days ago, and so far I am really liking it! I have used another site in the past, but this one is much easier to use and more personalized!

I have struggled with weight my whole life, and have gained and lost quite a few times over the years. My best success was 2 years ago at age 40, when I was 120 pounds lighter than my heaviest weight ever. Since then I have started to gain it back, slowly at first, but then more and more over the last year until I had gained 40 pounds! I am hoping this site will help get me back on track, and show me what errors I am making.

I am not looking to be thin, I have realized over the years that will never be me, and honestly I am at peace with that. Still, I do want to be a bit more svelte, leaner, and look healthier and feel more energetic.

I am really looking forward to meeting people and seeing how this community works!

Namaste, Cari
