    Hey & Welcome!!
    I started this new journey to working toward a 'Better Me' almost four weeks ago . I am a happily married (23 years) mom (3 young adult sons). I use MFP religiously and I can tell it makes a significant difference for me. I also feel that having others to share with along the way helps in the motivational aspect of things.

    I workout at the gym a minimum of four to five times a week doing cardio and strength training. I still have a long way to go. 68 more lbs to be exact.

    Hey, welcome on board, advice...it's all over the shop here, but the first one is have a goal, something you can measure, know exactly where you are and where you want to be, then have a plan, not just "eat less" but specific little (or big) changes your going to make to get to your goal. Once you have these, stop and think about it, take in what you have decided and think about where you might struggle with this, (eating out for example) and come up with ways to defeat these problems before you get there, if I'm eating out for example I always look at the menu the day before after just eating, make a choice and commit to that, rather than rocking up to the restaurant hungry and ordering everything on pages 1-7 in my case. Good luck and if you want to add me your more than welcome to!
