Just an introduction...

Hey! A couple of days ago I had a doctor's appointment with my gynecologist. I was weighed and saw that I had hit 278. I was devastated, sadden, and disappointed. I had tears in my eyes. I NEVER thought I'd get this heavy in my life. I didn't even weigh near this in either of my 4 pregnancies. Needless to say I knew in that moment I had to do something and actually mean it. The doctor suggested many things and using the myfitnesspal app was one. I need all the help and motivation I can get being that I have no one who's willing to partner with me and I suffer from major depressive disorder. It's hard but I refuse to lose this battle. :)

    I'm new to MFP as well and at a similar place in my life. Maybe we can motivate each other

    I've been using MFP for 10 days and it is great! We definitely all need some motivation! Add me if you would like. We can motivate each other. Good luck to you on your journey!
