Hi there! My name is Starr and I am a single mother of 2 sons. In this past year I have lost 60 pounds on my own. I am so excited that I have found myfitnesspal! I just know I'm on the road now to losing those few extra pounds! Id really like to talk with others on this site and hear their stories. I always find when you have weightloss buddies it really helps! So feel free to write me or add me!:flowerforyou:

    Hey Starr!

    I am also new (just started today)! I am 27 years old, no kids, but married.

    I have tried to lose weight for about 7 years now, and I was sucessful of reaching my goal weight only once a few years back, and it was when I was using an online fitness/calorie counter (a different one from this, which is no longer as good as it used to be so I joined MFP today).

    I have tried everything, and I find the only thing that works is being aware of your calories.

    Welcome (and CONGRATS on your 60 lbs so far!!)

    Feel free to add me as a friend (you may be my first!)

    Been here for a while and lost a little, it gets easier and the support/advice/direction is what's needed (some days more than others).

    I've found the biggest issue to be the family diet/exercise saboteurs!!!

    Feel free to add me, anyone else for that matter :D
