edited September 2024 in Introduce Yourself
I wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I am a 37 yr old college student., returning to school after staying home with the kids.In school we sit so much and study all the time and eat terrible., now I am 50 pounds overweight Its a accomplishment for me to just say that, now I am ready to do something about it. I am thankful I found this site so I dont feel alone and can get encouragement from other people in the same boat. I never had a problem with my weight til I got older. I have tried every diet pill there is and nothing works. Ive realized my problem is portion control and Im eating all the wrong foods. I love pasta, bread and junk food.

    Welcome to MFP which is a great tool for weight loss. I love this site because it gave me the opportunity to see how many calories I eat every day. I never realized how many calories are in fast food until I joined this site. For that reson, I rarely eat out except on few occasions and what a big difference in my way of thinking about food. Good luck on this new journey. I'm enjoying it.
