Hi everyone! I'm a 25 year old engineer from NY. I've half heartedly used fitday in the past, and my sister recently told me about this site, and I love it. I've never been overweight, but I've also never been in good shape, so this past fall I decided it was finally time. I started doing p90x and cooking/eating healtheir, and I felt great. I haven't been entirely consistent with working out through the holidays, but I got back on the wagon after the New Year. I'm currently doing p90 masters series and continuing to try to eat well.. My two biggest problem - I love to snack and I love to bake! I'm hoping I can continue keeping track of my food on here and it'll help me keep me the right path. I look foward to jumping into the message boards and getting to it!

    Welcome! As far as baking goes, there are a few posts about low-cal cakes a cupcakes. If you buy the boxed stuff and use diet soda....I think thats all you have to do.
    Good luck!

    My weaknesses are snacking and baking as well!! I've found that this site definitely helps me keep those in track tho (Ive only been on for less than a week)... so hopefully i can stick to it! It makes me think twice though when I have to enter it in on here and see that the treat I ate had MORE calories than I burnt off at the gym! It puts everything in perspective and I love it! Good luck!

    You'll do great with this site as a tool on your side!
