Hello, I'm a 30 year old mom to a energetic 17 month old son. I've been told over and over to lose weight. I'm here to start doing something about it.

    Congratulations Yokey! I wish you nothing but good health and success. Food journaling here on the fitnesspal has been the game changer for me. Every time I start to get a little peckish between meals and want to start grazing, I usually decide not to, b/c I don't want to have enter any unnecessary calories in my food diary, because if I gobble up all my calories early in the day, I can't have a very substantial dinner. Like right now, as of lunch, I have 851 calories left in the day, which will allow me to have a nice plate of spaghetti for dinner tonight! So if your brain works like mine, this might help you too :smile:
    PS: I love your cute picture...
