Hello! I'm Karissa and I'm a food lover. lol I don't know how to start this! I know that I have to lose weight, both for myself and for my daughter. I think if I have the support of others it will help in my journey. I have just recently started back on MFP and I am hoping that by reading the struggles we share and the success of everyone it will bring me up on the days I am struggling. Please add me as a friend!!!

    I already feel motivated! I am looking forward to getting to know you and helping you on each of your journeys and thank you in advance for being a part of mine :-)
  • Sent request....You are worth it! :-)
  • I think my love for food hit right around the time when I separated from my (now) ex-husband. So I can relate! It really does feel like the hardest step is curbing the food intake (it took me several tries to even start). You can do it!

    I have always had an excuse, no time, too stressed, it was cheaper to eat fast food, you name it. I've been through a lot the last few years and have decided it's time to do this for me and nobody else!!!
  • YES YOU CAN!!!!!
