Hello,
I have struggled with my weight for most of my adult years. Going up and down in size. Looking for every "quick" fix I could find. I tried Atkins, starving, vitamins, and diet pills. All would make me lose weight, but I would go back to my original weight, plus 5-10lbs more. As the scale creeped up I was in complete denial. Until my clothes stopped fitting and I saw myself in a few photos, which was a HUGE wake up call. Currently I am about 60 pounds from were I would I should be. This time I am using my fitness pal to help me eat healthier and make the right choices. I am making it a complete life style change instead reaching for the quick fixes again.
I would like to have a few My Fitness pal friends to help encourage and to help me stay motivated. Feel free to add me or send me a message. I could really use the motivation. The pounds are coming off so slowly but at least the scale is moving in the right direction!
