Hi everyone, my name is Liz, I'm 18 and looking to start off my adult hood with being healthy. I want to be physically fit for really the first time in my life and have started becoming more serious with increasing my exercise, and joined MFP to keep motivated.

I have been using MFP now for just 12 days, but tracking my food and exercise for just this long has really opened my eyes! I didn't realize how unhealthy I ate. I've just started in the community but there is so much support and motivation that has inspired me. In my personal life, I'm alone on this journey so it's great to find a place where others are trying to live a better lifestyle too.
For me, this is not about weight loss but rather eating better, getting in shape, and being healthy. I struggled with being very sick and other obstacles in the past few years but now I'm feeling great and have my doctor's approval to move forward with my plan.

I'm open to any new friends, regardless of age or goal so feel free to add me! :)
