Hello, I am new to MFP

Options
Hi, my name is Missy and I am the mother of a 24 year old daughter. I have been overweight pretty much since I gave birth to her. I have yo-yo'd with my weight for 24 years and I am sick of it. Tired of the rollercoaster ride and I want OFF! I joined MFP because a friend of mine told me about it and I thought it would be a good tool to help me in this journey. I am looking for people who are sick of the rollercoaster ride and want to make changes in their life to get healthy and get off this ride. Maybe we can encourage each other to get healthy because we are gonna have those days where we just don't care and go eat some cake and none of us need to do that. Because one piece of cake leads to another, then we are right back where we started.

    Hello, I'm also new to MFP. My daughter Ashley who lives in England told me about the page not quite sure how to use it, but willing to give it a try. I'm 46 and currently weigh the most I ever have motivation seems 2 b a real issue for me.
