Hello,
I startred using myfitnesspal about a week ago. I found out from my Doc I have "pre diabetes" so I guess I kind of got afraid and decided I needed to loose weight. I have know for a long time that I needed to loose weight but I wasn't to concerned about it until the diagnosis. Since I have started using the web site and the iphone app I have been doing pretty good staying within my caloric range and have implemented and walking routine. I'm pretty proud of my self for making it for a week. Looking forward to meeting the community and going on the journey together. Hopefully we can be an encouragement to each other.
