Hi everyone,

My name is Jenny - i'm also new here and am hoping this website and support from others here will help motivate me. Im an ITU nurse from London, England. I have always struggled with my weight. Before I got married I lost 14lbs with the help of a personal trainer and working out 5 times a week, now I don't have as much time and have put the 14lbs back on plus another 3lbs. Im by no means obese but if I keep going this way I will be. I started Diet Chef today and hopefully I can lose the weight slowly and healthily!!! Good luck to everyone!!

    Hello, My name is Alexis and I am new to myfittnesspal and I am enjoying this site very much. I truly believe that journaling my food will help me stay on track. Even if I eat bad at least I will be able to see what I am eating ; in writing. I am a self motivator but at times I do need to be motiviated so if you need help too, please be freind me.

    I'm fairly new to the site. I was invited by a relative, who's doing a fantastic job by the way, to reach her goals. If anyone would like to add me please feel free to do so. I'm sure we can all support each other. :)

    I am new here too. I really like this website, it seems to be helping a lot. I need that accountability, you know? I am usually self motivating too, but also need a boost from friends in the same boat! You can add me if you want too.
