Hi everyone! I am new to My Fitness Pal. This is day #1 for me. I've been disgusted with my weight gain due to a back problem that didn't allow me to hardly walk let alone exercise. I since have had the surgery nearly 5 months ago and now I need to get back in shape. I feel miserable in my clothes and was looking for a way to do this on my own. My goal is to lose 30 lbs. Well, here's to the first day, wish me luck!

Hello! Good luck
Happy to hear that you are recovering nicely. I also have some back issues - arthritis and herniated discs. Things are hurting more than usual when I exercise, but all the more reason to lose some of the weight.
We can do this!0 -
