in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone,

I just wanted to introduce myself. I am Johnte Williams and I was recommended to this site for help. I am going to give it a try and hope that it helps me toward losing the pounds I need. Not only for health reasons but for personal reasons and self esteem also. :smile:

    Welcome. You've made a good decision in joining MFP. I joined the first part of this month. Being able to keep track of the foods you eat on here is great. Motivational support is the best. Please feel free to request me as a friend.

    Welcome! I just joined a little over a week ago (went to the doctor, she put me on the scale and there was no more denial!).
    Anyhow, I've found logging every little morsel of food I eat helps me be accountable and I like the motivation to exercise - I'm sure you'll find lots of things and people to like too. Best wishes!

    I'm Wendy and I'm also new here. I have gained so much weight in the last 10 years....skinny husband that eats everything with sugar.......of course, I thought I could eat with him.....Wrong! Now the hard part of eating properly, doing some exercising and getting this off. I know I can do it. :smile:

    He's on his way to pick up a pizza and the real "get down to business" starts in the morning! LOL
