My name is Annette and I just joined MFP yesterday. 47 year old female living in NC. Since hitting 40 I have watched my weight gradually increase to the point now I feel it is out of control. My busy lifestyle (like everyone else's) and travel for work several weeks of the month offers challenges to healthy choices.

I made the decision that I have got to make changes and I am excited to begin the journey for a healthier lifestyle! Would love to find and provide support here in hopes of making the journey more enjoyable and not so daunting.

:happy:
