Hey guys! I'm gonna be straightforward: I joined this site because I need to lose weight. Big time.

I've been struggling with my weight since middle school, and I downloaded the myfitnesspal app because I'm tired of being disappointed in myself. My eating habits are very impulsive; if I see a drive-through on my way home from work, I feel like I have to get something. I can even get cranky if I don't. Even when I'm not hungry, I'll sometimes go out of my way to buy sweets! It's gotten to the point where I get winded just by walking up the stairs in my house. Not a huge confidence booster. :cry:

I'm really hoping this will at least help me keep myself accountable for what I eat. I've been at it for a week now, and it's really helped me see how much I underestimate the foods I think aren't all that bad.

I think that things like this work much better the more support you have, so I'm looking for other people who feel like they need someone else to give them a little push every now and then. ^^

Send me a message or friend request anytime!

    My brother-in-law is an over the road driver. He packs lunch and dinner for 2 days and buys breakfast if he is not at home. He lost 72lbs last year doing this and exercise. He has more discipline than me and i'm at home every day.
