Ok, I knew I had "gained a little weight" since I quit smoking a couple years ago. Last week I decided to download MFP app When I bought a scale this afternoon I was surprised that I am about 40 pounds overweight! No wonder I was becoming disgusted with the size of my belly. These boards seem to be a great place to be encouraged and not get discouraged. Hoping to cheer folks on and get cheered on with this endeavor. I don't want to battle my weight, I want to kick it's butt!
