New to MFP and Excited!

Hello everybody! My name is Stephanie and I'm new to MFP. I have horrible eating habits right now and very little exercise and would really love to change that. I tried to use this website a year ago and it worked wonders for a couple months, then some things happens and I was thrown off my routine, which lead me to where I am today. My goal is to love 30 lbs over all, and hopefully 20lbs down by Christmas. The holidays are my favorite time of year and I really want to be able to enjoy them without feeling self conscious or bad about myself. If anybody is in a similar boat as myself, or would like more friends to help along, please friend me or message me! Thanks for listening - hope to give a positive update in a few weeks!
