in Introduce Yourself
I just started my account on here yesterday, and I'm really hoping I can finally stay on track!! I tend to be an emotional eater, or just eat when I get bored, then regret it later. My goal in this is not solely to LOSE WEIGHT. With heart disease running in my family, I just want to get healthy! ...and I'm hoping a little bit of weight loss comes along with that. I'm on the dance team at my university, and would like to feel more confident while I'm dancing! Whenever I gain a few pounds, I don't feel coordinated or motivated at practices. I hate when this happens because dancing is what I love the most!! I decided to start a program on here in order to make a change in LIFESTYLE, not just a diet. I've seen how encouraging MFP members can be just from browsing through some posts, so I'm hoping this program will get me in great shape in order to reach my full potential as a dancer, and eventually fulfill my dream of dancing for the NBA after college :)

    Hi

    I'm relatively new myself and find the site invaluable. It keeps me focussed.

    Hope it works for you.
