Hi!
I am 6 months into my new Health plan for the rest of my life…I am 53 years old and have lost 36 pounds since Christimas Eve 2011 when I had "that" moment getting ready to play my horn at church. I am an accountant by day and enjoy playing in my church music groups.
I am rebuilding my nutrition plan with the help of one of the eating gurus coaching programs on line and am in the "stabilization" third phase. I used another on line calorie tracker to lose weight, but this sight appeals to me because it is about fitness rather than just focused on "losing"… I want to gain fitness,maintain fitness and like the positive aspect of the site.
I have gone from a size 14 to a size 8. I wear a Nike fuel Band and fit in as much walking, stairs and standing in my day as I can. I do light yoga stretches and poses in the morning.
I joined MFP because several of my co workers and friends IRL are on it.. I also like the additional tools like the water counter and BMR/BMI calculators.
Thanks to the creators,sponsors and users of this site!
