New and Optimistic

Options
Hi everyone :). I just started my fitness pal today. I stepped on the scale for the first time in ages and my eyes nearly popped out of my head so I thought to myself--That's it! I found this amazing website and see that it has a great community so I wanted to put myself out there and say hello to everyone and that I wish you all the best of luck on your journey to fitness and good health!

I have not been struggling with my weight as much as I have been struggling with staying toned so...that's my number 1 goal at this point.

If anyone ever feels that they need some advice or little motivations, I would be happy to send supportive messages, etc. I know that I, too, need little reminders every now and then to stay on track given that I have an extremely busy school schedule.

Anyway--nice to meet you all and hello!! :D
