in Introduce Yourself
Hi, my name is Bethany and I live in Alabama. I have attempted to calorie count before only to fail, but now I have started using MFP religiously and am seeing results. I'm ready to make a lifestyle change early!

It's great to see so many other people who have the same concerns and questions as I. I don't have to discuss issues with people who look at me crazy insisting that I'm ok weight/size/health wise, yet I'm not convinced myself.

    Welcome Bethany!! I checked your profile and we have some similarities! I'm married (6 years on the 21st!), have 2 boys (4 & 2), and I'm 28 (at least for another month!!). Feel free to add me! I love having friends to help motivate and to bounce questions/ideas off!!

    Congrats to you on making a lifestyle change! MFP is the only thing I've successfully used to count those calories. it is difficult when people tell you, you're fine, but you(well me) know that there are too many lumps and bumbs under my clothes. Good luck on your journey. Friend me if you'd like support! :happy:

    I agree with the calorie count as well. I have tried that and WW before but did not do too well. Since here I have lost more weight than I have before. I too am married and have two boys, though slightly older. Good Luck on your journey!!
