I am 26 year old wife and mother and I am needing to lose 50 lbs, It all came from college, marriage & my DS. I would give anything to be 135 again (like I was in High school) I was using Weight watchers online, but it was costing me about $20 a month. I love this new weightloss tool and it's free! Thanks goes out to whoever cared enough about my health to make it this way! Myfitnesspal has everything I was using in the WW website too...except recipes, I think...but I haven't ventured out yet! I am already onto a great start...since last week I have gone down 3 lbs...yippie!!! So here is to the new healthy & active me!!! :flowerforyou:

    the support is exactly why this is working for me. when I have done bad in the day, and I get on here and see everyone doing good it makes me not want to do bad anymore, and it also allows me to forgive myself for screwing up, b/c everyone is so supportive! I too am a mom trying to lose that stubborn pregnancy weight, good luck to both of us, we are trying to lose about the same!!!!!:flowerforyou:
