Hi, Just got back from my first doctor's appointment in probably 10 years. Based on what I was told I'm going to try to make a commitment to be healthier, starting today. I've got quite a bit of weight to lose and I have high blood pressure :/ The food and fitness diary on here seems like a great tool. I work in a bakery and have a wicked sweet tooth so my biggest challenge will be staying motivated and on track.

    MFP is great! Just decide in your mind that you are going to get healthy no matter what, and you will! Feel free to add me. :D

    My sweet tooth tries to do me in too! But I try to eat more fruit, a lot of sweet, less processed flour and such. It helps that I am Gluten free (not by choice) :explode: so I can't eat all the bakery items. Good luck and just keep trying.
