Hello, my name is JoAnn

Options
Hi there, I wanted to introduce myself, I just joined this site today. My name is JoAnn, and I live on Long Island, NY.
I am 39 years old, work full time as an Office Manager, and recently decided it's time to get myself into shape and lose this weight once and for all. I have 60-70lbs to lose.
I hope to meet some new friends on here.

    Hi JoAnn
    I have been a member of this site since Jan and its brilliant for keeping track of everything. The calories intake can also be added when out via a phone app which is brill for me as i tend to forget little things (or did b4). when i go out now i add straight away as there are calories for takeaway menus. Good luck with ur weight loss and i've sent a friend request.
