Hello,I have just joined up MFP .I have quite a bit of weight to lose and this will keep me accountable.I am keen to get started as I have been overweight most of my life.I joined to get motivation and make some new friends and get tips and support.:smile: and make some lasting friendships.I aim to track everyday.and probably will slip up occasionally.
I have never set goals before,my 1st goal is to lose 10% and I promise I take each day as it comes and not to beat up on myself too much,Today I begin my new journey to a healthier me..

    Hello,

    Welcome from California! I would like to be your friend and help support you. :smile:
    I visited Queensland, just last year to see a family member. I loved my trip there, its a very beautiful country.

    Good luck with your new goals ....... eat healthy at each meal, move more each day ....... it may feel weird at first, but keep doing it & it will all soon become a very good habit. Friend me if you'd like .......

    Hope you aren't having to deal with that bad weather down there :noway:
