Hi! My name is Yvonne. I was recently diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis and I am wanting to lose weight. Over the last 10 years I have put on quite a bit of weight due to back issues. I have since gotten that "fixed" and then other issues showed up! I felt like I was not in control of anything! Then one day, I decided to get back on board with My fitness pal and if I can't control anything else right now, I can control the amount of calories and food I am eating!!

Thank you for your support!

Yvonne

    Hi Yvonne! I know that feeling of not being in control well. It is something I struggle with. I hope that taking the reigns in this area will give you a sense of empowerment! It will definitely help you achieve your weight loss goal.

    You're going to do great!
