Hi everyone! I just signed up for MFP to see how it compares to Weight Watchers Online. I found myself coming here a lot to find out nutritional content of foods, since WW doesn't have a very large selection of foods to search from. So I kept on having to come here or somewhere else to put it into the WW system so it would calculate the Points values...so frustrating! And since this is free, I figured I'd give it a shot!

I'd like to lose about 30 pounds, maybe more. Just taking it one day at a time. I'm a 25 year old female who is eager to break out of the yoyo diet cycle. I work full time and go to school for my master's degree part time, so needless to say I am a very busy woman! You can read more on my profile. Please feel free to friend, comment, whatever. I'm having a lot of fun on these forums already and learning a lot. It's good to be here, best of luck to all!

Marig0ld (yes, that's my favorite flower. I had to use a zero for the "o" since the "normal" way to spell it was taken)!
