Hi everyone,

You can call me Jen. I am at my very heaviest (215.bs and 5’3 inches tall, BMI of 38.1 - embarrassed to even admit that) and I am miserable. I do not enjoy life the way I used to; I go to work then I go sit at home, alone, and watch TV. I have two kids and a beautiful grand-daughter. I want to become healthy and happy so I can enjoy life again so I am starting today. I hope that MyFitnessPal can help motivate me and keep me on track. I want to lose 85 lbs. by July because my daughter is getting married. I know it is a challenging goal, but I believe I can do it if I focus.

I would love MFP friends who are also starting their fitness journey to add me so we can lean on each other when the going gets tough and cheer for each other when we meet our goals (big and small) and also to lend an ear when someone needs to vent, cry, etc.

Thanks for letting me share!
