    Hi everyone ! I joined the myfitnesspal through the app on my phone a few months ago. Unfortunately, I think I was doing something wrong....... perhaps had my calorie limit set too low. I originally had it at 1300 and ended up feeling very lightheaded and just overall not well, so I increased it to 1500 . I ended up losing about 10 pounds in 2 weeks which was amazing....... but I have since lost my groove. Its been very hot and humid here which is causing a severe lack of motivation to move ...... and no one I know in the area has any interest in losing weight, so Im in this alone. This is why I decided to start online ...... in search of people like me that can help each other to continue the motivation !! I am 47 years old and a mother of 3 grown children and a grandmother to one handsome little man ! Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well !!!!
