Hey everyone,

I'm not new to myfitnesspal but I am to the forums. Anyways, I live in North Central Florida, 30 years old, have three furbabies (no kids). Getting into shape has been my goal and I am very proud to say since August I've lost 54 lbs. It's been a constant struggle but worth every bit of effort. My goal is to someday be able to help motivate and inspire others to get healthy. I am seeing now the changes in my body as a result of losing weight (internally not just externally) a life long problem I have had (making me unable to have kids) seems to be correcting itself with the weight gone! Not the having kids part but the "symptoms" of the disease.. Anyways, I know that having support and people cheering you on has been a HUGE help to me so I wanted to get to know some new people that are on the same journey! I have 49 lbs to go until my goal and as a reward I plan on going sky diving! :-)

    Hello from Melbourne Fl : )
    Great job!
  • One of my goals is to get healthy and help others get healthy and lose weight as well. :) This might be the 5th time I'm trying to lose weight but it's going to be the last time I have to actually TRY. I WILL do it. :)

    Welcome from Tampa! This site works! (I wanted to go sky diving when I was younger but I've picked up a height thing as I've gotten older so that's out!)
