Getting Ready for Paris...

Just met with a nutrition doctor in Pasadena and he suggested this site. I used a similar site four years ago when I lost 85 lbs ($9 a month--yikes!) I have been overweight since kindergarten and have had success twice in getting to a decent weight. Once in high school using a popular meal replacement drink program and, most recently, by tracking my food and running (with a little help from a diabetes drug called Byetta--I am Type II, by the way).
I have never been in the "Ideal" range but I felt so good before the weight came back on over the last two years (it's a long, sad, story for another time).
I am super motivated because I am on this journey with my hubby and because we are planning a trip to Paris in December and we would like to have a more comfortable flight and not be the fat Americans.
I tend to get a little obsessive about tracking everything so I am glad this site is easy to use and free!
