Hello, I am new to myfitnesspal.com. I am a registered dietitian and have been for 24 years. I am also a runner (have done 8 marathons). I am coming off an injury. I had plantar fasciitis and a recent calf tear. I have been biking instead of running. Now that I am 46 years old, I am finding myself a little more sedentary. I still try to eat very well, but I struggle like everyone else. I can't gain more weight as I am a weight loss (bariatric) dietitian. I wanted to become more familiar with myfitnesspal as I encourage patients to use it all the time. I also want to stay motivated myself to lose 10# and go back to my usual weight and previous activity level. Also looking for more food tips for myself and to share with other patients. I am working on becoming more familiar with this site and thought posting here was a good place to start.

Welcome Jane! Not only will you gain great information here, I think you'll also be able to give some good advice. This is my 3rd time with MFP,I've been successful each time, but as you know..now that I'm approaching 46 and been menopausal for several years, it's just not as
easy to take the weight off. I'm also a former diabetic and was able to learn a lot from others here. Good luck!!0
