It can be done!

One year ago today I started myfitnesspal. I lost 30 pounds within 5 months and have kept it off. This is a major big deal for me! I've always been overweight/obese for the majority of my adult life. After meeting with a surgeon last year to talk about removing my gall bladder, I decided that THIS time I truly was going to lose weight once and for all. I want to be healthy. Since I lost weight, I no longer have daily heartburn or gall bladder pain. I am more active, but I know I have to be if I want to continue eating my favorite foods. I still love to cook and bake, but now I watch the portion size and ride the bike a tad longer for those special treats. It has been a joy shopping. I feel more confident and pretty. I've always known losing weight was all about the numbers, and myfitnesspal helped me keep the numbers in check. I have shared this website with many people, because it works.
