in Introduce Yourself
Hello! I am currently using MFP to help count my macro nutrients. I have been into living a healthy lifestyle for a few years now and lost an initial 60lbs on my own by using P90x and changing what I ate.

If anyone needs any extra encouragement from someone who knows what it's like and has been through and overcome the challenges of dieting and getting healthy then feel free to add me :)

I look forward to helping as well as receiving help from you all!

Best wishes to everyone! :)

Dana

    Congrats on the 60 lbs. down!!!

    I can always use some support/motivation/dose of the harsh truth when I want to give up. I have been doing ok (somewhat dedicatied but not full-hearted) with the changing of your lifestyle way of thinking for awhile now. I recently (a week or so ago) had a rude awakening and have really been putting myself in the hot seat about what I have to do, and what habits I can no longer do, if I truly want to be successfull with living and feeling healthier. I am currently completely working to change my mindset, habits, excuses, etc. and have been great at staying on track, but I know there will come a time when my strength is tested and I will need others to fall back on and keep me moving. So, I would love to have such a motivated and successful individual, such as yourself, as a MFPal!! Sending a request!

    Jezy_Jass, We are all human and we all fall down sometimes but the falling down part is not as important as the will and determination to get back up!

    Remember if you fall down 7 times and get back up 8, you're still winning!

    I accepted your request and look forward to helping you as much as possible. I am currently beginning school for my BS in Nutrition Science and I have a wealth of knowledge just from the desire to learn and gain as much knowledge about health and fitness as possible.

    Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have.

    Remember to always start the day with a positive, can do attitude!

    And to Melissa, you have become a very dear friend of mine and I will always cherish the first day I met you and asked you "Excuse me, but do you know where the back extensions are?" I am so thankful to have to in my life to help push me. Blessed am I.

    I am looking for some support. I have been halfheartedly trying on another site, but really want to fit back into some of my cosplay clothes so using that as a motivator.
