Hi I joined my fitness pal a few weeks ago. I haven't used it a ton but I'm trying to get on here more. Its amazing to me how all the food I eat adds up. Normally my calories are decent but I go way over on carbs. I'm trying to eat healthier and the minute I start to do better I start feeling like I'm starving and I munch more or engorge myself. I'm very lucky I'm pretty slender but I want to be comfortable with my body and make healthier choices for my self and my family. Anyways thats some of my story in a nutshell. Please say hi:wink:
Jennifer

  • hey I just joined too! and funny you say how you start to do good, but then find yourself hungry and then splurge on stuff... I do that a looooot too!!! mostly on carbs... muffins, crackers, cereal.. mm.. anyway, maybe we can help motivate each other to make healthier choices?
