Determined to reach my goal!

I was diagnosed with breast cancer two years ago. I went thru radiation and chemotherapy treatments for a year. I am doing very well so far. But during the treatments I gained ten pounds. I don't know if it was the treatments or just the fact that I wasn't as active. But I have not been able to get myself motivated to lose weight and stick to it. Motivation seems better now that I have been introduced to myfitnesspal.com. Having to log everything really makes you pay attention to everything you eat or drink! I have a new beautiful grandaughter (1st grandchild by the way) and I want to do whatever is in my power to take control of my health so I will be around to watch her grow up!!
