hey guys, Im new and excited to begin this site! Im 38 yrs old, single mom..and I'm fat...instead of having surgery i want to prove that I can lose this weight, on my own and get healthy!! I want to be around for a long time and i want my son to have a happy, active mom! I would love to hear from anyone who wants to give and recieve support..I know it is easier when you have positive people supporting you and backing you up! Please feel free to stop by and say hi anytime!

    Hi Adrienne & WELCOME!! My name is Cath, married Mum of 47, with 2 children & 2 grandchildren!! I have been on this journey since January and have lost 22.5 llbs, which I couldn't have done without the support of MFP friends. Add me if you wish. : )

    Hi and welcome,

    I'm a 28yr old married mother of 2. Just wanted to say hi, i love this site it helps me keep track of my food as I love to eat.

    So good luck!

    p.s, if you have a smart phone download the myfitnesspal app, you can even use your phone as a scanner to enter food and it syncs with the p.c version automatically

    Hi Adrienne,
    All the best, I have recently started too and really enjoying the site, learning a lot about how many calories are in some foods! And slowly discovering the messageboards :)
