Hi there!

Been on MFP for 9 days now and I am really excited about this!! For a while I had been looking for a simple way to track my eating habits until I stumbled upon the MFP app.

I have tried different types of exercices and diets and realised none would work unless it felt PLEASANT and EXCITING. I am a Virgo, so entering my calorie intake everyday is not tedious at all for me and satisfies my craving for tracking data and stats, lol - if MFP could produces pie charts... that'd be awesome! lol

Today I weigh 201 lbs and my first goal is to get to 175 lbs by my birthday, August 29. I am convinced I can do this. And very importantly, in a pleasant and joyful way. Friends tell me I have a bubbly personality and it's important to me to find joy in all that I do. Yesterday I went out for a run (ok ok. it was more like walk--run-walk-walk-run-walk-walk) and for the first time in my life, my legs were itching for that run! Funny enough : the 1st song that played on my ipod as I made my first steps out of my appartment was Man In the Mirror... definitely looking to make that change!

Please feel free to read my profile, and if you find yourself having similar goals or outlook on life, or want to get/provide support (I sure log in everyday!) add me as a friend!

See you around!

    You're adorable! I'm 29, turning 30 in November. Looking to lose 65 total. I'm not 4'11 but I've got a bubbly personality and always looking to encourage new friends/be encouraged!
