I'm 48, have lost it before but it's been several years, I really need to feel better about this part of me. I want my husband and kids to be proud, I want to set a good example, I want to be healthy and feel good. I haven't been committed for a long time. Reading post this morning is encouraging.

    If you commit to recording your daily intake and calories burned, you will be succesful. It's and educational process and it helps you develope better habits. MFP also has a great supportive community. Enjoy the journey.
