Hello everyone! I am a married mother of two who, up until this point has been on and off again with her weight loss goals. I always thought I ate "ok" until I started tracking everything I ate...OMG what an eyeopener! No wonder I'm so fat! :)

Seriously tho, I am on a mission to become the healthy role model that my kids and husband deserve. I am excited for a community of support here at myfitnesspal!

    :) You took the words right out of my mouth. myfitnesspal makes me more cautious with what I eat. Congratulation on taking the first step to a healthier life style, feel free to add me as a friend.

    It was an eye-opener for me, too. The first day I logged into the site and input what I'd eaten that day, I was appalled, and I hadn't even had dinner or a snack yet. I've changed my ways. I was so happy when my 7-year-old daughter said to me one day, "Mom, when you eat healthy, we ALL eat healthy." YES!!
