in Introduce Yourself
Although I have only been using MFP for a few days I can already see that it is going to help me figure things out and help me keep track of what I am doing. I couldnt be happier about that! The day that my husband and I both signed up for this is the same day that we bought a scale and got a real slap in the face, but that slap has turned into a good thing and good things to come!

    Well getting on the scale for the first time in years was a real shocker for me, I saw numbers on it that I never wanted to see. I am hoping to make for a good fast start to keep me modivated to get the rest of it off as well. Whats funny is that my goal weight is a weight that I once weighed and thought of my self as being chuby, looking back, I looked great! LOL

    Thanks! I think that our big thing is learning what and how to eat again. We dont eat much meat but after looking at the things that we do it we are replacing our meats with other bad foods, and we knew that, we just didnt realize how much we had both gained over the last 5 years. But I am just a few days in and have last 2 pounds (I work out a lot and hard).
