Hi everyone!, I'm new to this site , a friend told me abt it so I figured I would check it out and here I am! I'm looking to become a much healthier and happier person with my body and I'm also looking to meet some great people who are going through the same struggles with weight as I am. I've tried dieting and exercise in the past and just failed at it due to simply giving up and even though I know I need to do this for myself and I am, I really needed that support from some of the ppl in my life and I was not getting it. I am a 285 lb 28 year old woman and even though I would love to someday fit into a smaller pair of jeans I just want to be healthy for myself!!

I also have a question... I ate Wal-Marts "Melon Trio" tonight and there is no Nutrition Facts on the container... It's fresh fruit packed in water but I was wondering if anyone knew what that consist of for calories so I could log them. They are in chunks. Thank you! :smile:

    Is that it? If so, it says net weight 1 pound (or 454 grams). Maybe just split them evenly (or make your own estimates) and enter 5.33 oz (or 151.3 grams) for each of the ingredients Watermelon, Cantaloupe, Honeydew.

    Anyway, welcome to the site!
