in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone

I'm new to MFP. Just finished my first week. Was using different calorie counter for about a month (and lost 10lbs already!) and recently changed to this site. I think its way better than other one I was using. I like MFP because for the first time in a long time I actually feel motivated to lose weight and exercise. Seeing the numbers is a big help for me. I have struggled with my weight my whole life and have lost and gained many times over. I am hopeful this time. I can already see the difference with my health i.e lower blood pressure and blood sugar levels. This is really important for me because I have PCOS and host of other health issues and I really want to turn it around. I know I can do it! Anyways- just wanted to say "hi".

    Yes.... I'm new too! My goal is to loose 25lbs by end of March 2011 just in time to celebrate my 50th birthday.
    I have managed to loose 2lbs so far just doing the calories count while I'm still waiting for my package to come in.
    Thanks for your support!

    Hello everyone..

    Well the kids are teenager now and I now have to focus more on myself as well. I am highly motivated and have changed how i cook and what food comes through my front door.
