Hi there, new to myfitnesspal

Hi, my name Kristin and I've just started using this app to help in my weight loss. I live in Oregon and am a single mom who is about to become an empty nester. Looking to start the next chapter of my life but need to do it in a healthier way.

    Aloha, Kristin! Welcome to MFP! Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like!
  • Hi Kristin!
    I am also new to MFP. I became an empty nester two years ago. I had a hard time. I began my own adventure when I dropped my daughter off at college and then I headed from the east cost to the west coast to start a new chapter. I cried a lot but now I am enjoying this adventure except I want to be thin and healthy! I also began my weight loss journey today.

    Feel free to friend request me.

    Thank you all for the great support! Happily building my list of friends here and very excited to really get going. Still getting used to tracking my meals and becoming increasingly aware of the choices I make and why. First goal is 20 lbs by Christmas ~
