My name is Jennifer, and I am 24 years old. I will be 25 in December. I have been overweight as long as I remember and have desired to weight but have failed numerous times, that is if I even started the diet. My motivation is being in love with for the first time and wanting to healthier (as well as myself) and our future. I am also going on vacation this year and want to be in better shape for lying on the beach and getting my tan (burn is more like it) on. My breaking point was when I was trying on clothes and nothing fit. I almost tired of having this extra tire around my waist. Basically I have just rambled, but I just want to feel better about myself. Any encouragement is appreciated.

    Hi, welcome to MFP. You've made a great first step. I joined a couple weeks ago and it's been helpful to have an easy site to log my calorie intake and see exactly how what I'm eating adds up. The first day when I punched in my favorite burger it was a real eye-opener. It's helping me choose much more healthy eating habits. It does work, I'm meeting my goals. Best of luck to you! Friend me if you'd like some extra support.
