Hey everyone,
Today is my first day with MyFitnessPal and so far I'm very impressed. I usually don't make poor food choices at home because I make a point not to buy sodas or sweets. If they aren't there, you can't eat them. But I keep Special K in the cabinet for cravings.
My problem is Sonic drinks before class and eating out after work because I'm tired and don't want to cook.
I have spend most of the last four years focusing only on school and it has put my 30 lbs heavier than I was in high school when I played soccer all the time.
I know that I have a family history of obesity and I'm ready to make a change now. So, HI and I hope to get to know some of you soon.
