    Congratulations on your choice to better your life!

    Eat well, and track your calories, weigh yourself weekly (although I admit--I weigh daily! :embarassed: ) and measure, measure, MEASURE your body parts!

    If you like to read inspiring blogs, take a look at mine :wink: located here at MFP (the address is in my signature).

    Friend me, if you like. :smile: I am always here to listen and support! :flowerforyou:

  • Hi! I'm from Katy, right outside of Houston... good luck on your journey. I started this site about 1.5 weeks ago and LOVE it. I've never had something motivate me like this site and the people are so nice and friendly :bigsmile:
