in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone! I am new to my fitness pal. My weight has always been something that I have struggled with and I hope that joining this program and the MFP community will help me to lose weight and stay motivated. I am determined to lose 30 lbs! I just started yesterday and the journey seems long but I have heard great things about this website and I am so excited to get started. Does anyone know of a good website for healthy recipes? Look forward to hearing from you! : )

    Pinterest has been an invaluable resource for me! Between the healthy recipes, fitness blogs and inspiration pins I've been steadily losing weight! I love it and pin daily!

    Welcome! I think we're in the same boat -- I have always been very aware of my weight, always seen it fluctuate and then plateau, and I also want to lose 30 lbs! You can add me if you want! :smile:
