Hello folks,
I discovered MFP through my new Android Smartphone... First app I downloaded and installed, thinking maybe it was a good idea to start thinking about healthier living. After a week of tracking my food intake, I discovered the web site; neat ! Love the fact that there is a community for support!
Anyhow... I am 47 years old, borderline high-tension, never dieted before and just on the bad side of BMI at 31. So I decided to meet with a nutritionist, learned about sodium and fibre and such, and am now trying to change my eating habits: to eat less but more often and healthier (I was having breakfast like a pauper and dinner like a King; now reversing that). WIll try to add water and exercise slowly.
Been tracking using MFP for a week now, and I have been "mostly" below my daily calories limit suggested, with a few "exceptions" twice... So no weight loss yet
How soon before "MY FIRST POUND" ?
