Today is my first day with myfitnesspal. I have struggled with weight problems pretty much all my life. I am 49 and lost my job two years ago and am the heaviest I have ever been and never imagined I could let myself get to this point. I am tired of being like this and have a beautiful daughter and great husband. I owe them someone who is healthy and will be around for them. I can't afford expensive diet plans and I need the support so here I am. I need to lose almost 200 hundred pounds so I will really need support, encouragement, and advice. I am looking forward to meeting new friends and offering my encouragement as well. Thanks for the time!!

  • Welcome! I started this morning--I think this site will be a great resource, since the support is very grassroots and it's ACTUAL people losing weight here--not "results may vary." So come on in, and don't be shy! Everyone here is really nice. :)
