Newbie Here (Let's be Fitness Pals)

Options
Hi All...

I'm new to the Community. My name is Hiawatha, you can call me Hia ( pronounced Hiya) if you wish. I started using myfitnesspal on Monday (Jan. 31st) via my Ipod. What a great App and website to help us all reach our weight loss goals. I'll be turning 30 years old next year January. I have high blood pressure and I 'HAD' really bad eating habits. This is the year for me to loss weight and change the way I eat from this year forward. I have a 18 month old son and he's my every reason to succeed on my weight loss journey. I gained 40 pounds in the last 18 months, shame on me. I'll be getting married this year and I want one more child. I believe my excessive weight and unhealthy eating habits are the reason we can't conceive. We've been trying for well over a year, if my weight is the reason...I want to fix it asap. I want to shed this weight so I can be a new mommy.

I want friends! Anyone is welcome to be my friend. Let's encourage one another. Thanks for reading.
