43 lbs to lose - already down 7 lbs

Hi all! I was introduced to myfitnesspal a year ago but just started really using it last week. I'm 30 years old, 5'3.5 and currently weigh 166lbs. I started at 173 lbs and my goal is to get to 130lbs. I was 135lbs 4 years ago and my weight has steadily creeped up since than. I love how user friendly myfitnesspal app is and keeping track of how much I'm eating is helping out tremendously. I'm working on incorporating more exercise into my life. I've really enjoyed seeing the success stories on here and decided to introduce myself. I look forward to interacting with others with similar goals.
