Hi All,

I'm a 48 year old mom of 2 teens. I had lost 10 lbs a few years ago and managed to keep it off. Now that my oldest is out of high school I have nothing to keep me on the go. My youngest isn't as involved in activities. As soon as graduation was over last spring I immediately gained 6 pounds and now that's turned into gaining 10 pounds since last spring. Yikes! I'm very unhappy with myself because I am not keep myself motivated. I don't exercise, fast food is king and my clothes just keep getting tighter. I've decided in 2009 I better do something since the older we get the harder it is to keep ourselves in shape. My Fittness Pal is awesome! I love that I can keep track of my food and excerise.....Oh and it's free!
