Hello fellow myfitnesspals!

Options
I joined this wonderful community at the beginning of this month and decided it was about time I introduced myself. After all, the journey to health is always better when you have support from others in the same or similar position. I am so pleased and surprised at how robust and motivational this program is, especially since it is free!

Since I have joined and tracked my eating, I have gotten rid of 8 pounds and I am thrilled. I have fought my weight all my life and until recently, the fat was winning! I have been making a lot of small changes (eating better, healthier, more conscious of what I eat) over the past year or so and now that I have found myfitnesspal it is proving to be a great asset to my mission.

Please add me as a friend and anything you care to share about your journey and/or what tips or tricks you have learned would be very much appreciated.

Thank you and it is very nice to meet all of you!
