I added Myfitnesspal app to my phone in October and did absolutely nothing with it. I ignored all the pushes. I am the biggest I have ever been and my body is reacting to the weight. It hurts to walk up the stairs and I can't believe how I let myself go. We have diabetes and high cholesterol in our family and many friends are suffering with health issues. I need to take control and make an effort in my health and lifestyle. This will give me new found confidence as I work towards my career goals in management. I wish everyone success in what they are hoping to achieve here.

    Hello I too needed to lose for health issues. Mainly a knee I could no longer walk on for a day without screaming pain. Over two years on MFP I lost 25 kgs (about 55lbs or almost 4 stone depending on where you caculate) the health benefits are worth I no longer have the threat of a knee replacement hanging over me in the next 6 months. Log honestly for yourself and don't think too much about how you do it you can get to healthy looks and compliments come in the bundle but healthy is the aim, if you need a friend well I'm here

    Hello and Welcome again!! Please feel free to add me. I also have family members that are diabetic. But I will be going into the health field soon. So I want to be healthy as I am learning lots about what obesity can do to our bodies. I am in need to lose 30 pounds as of right now. :)
