About Me
Hi, I'm Autumn. Almost 2 years ago I had RNY gastric bypass surgery, on April 8, 2009. Since that time, I've lost 176lbs! I am very proud of that, but I still have about 50-60lbs to lose. I have started to count calories to help me shed the last of my weight and to help me in the maintenance phase, once I get there.
Why I Want To Get In Shape
I want to be FAT NO MORE (FNM). (I recently read a book called Fat No More and it was good). I want to be happy, healthy, and have fun in life! I dont want to suffer from all of the horrible health problems that I watched my Gramma and my Mom endure. I want to be free from obesity and all of its ugly!!!
I have always hated counting calories, with a passion, but myfitnesspal is SO easy! I am so glad to have found this tool and this community!!!
Excited to be part of it all~!!
Autumn

PS--Can someone help me figure out how to get my tickler in my signature, please? When I copy and paste the URL from the tickler page to the signature box, nothing happens...it just stays as a URL...

Hi Autumn!
Wow.....176 pounds, that's almost too much to comprehend!! Impressive!
Welcome, and good luck, add me if you need some extra friends
Also, your ticker code should look something like this:
url=http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-tickerimg]http://tickers.myfitnesspal.com/ticker/show/418/7460/4187460.png[/img][/url
