Hello Myfitnesspal world!

Options
I am new to this and figured I would introduce myself. I am 26 and a single mom to a beautiful seven year old. About three years ago I took an office position. I had been working in retail for years. Since the job switch I have put on 5-7lbs a year! Which is ridiculous since I had been eating food court junk for lunch every day. So I think I need to change a few things and put a priority on my health and fitness. Any support I can get would be great! Looking for some friends that will help me keep in check..and I'll do the same. :happy:

    Same here. I have an 8 year old and was fairly active until about 3 years ago when I went back to school and started drinking soda everyday! I have since stopped drinking soda but have gained an insane amount of weight. I need motivation to get to the gym, and people to hold me accountable!

    I wil hold anybody accountable as long as you do the same for me.... Its all about the support and you have to be able to handle constructive criticism if you want to add me.
