Hey Everyone!

I am 27 Female from Canada! I have had my fitness pal app for just about 10 years. I have used it on and off since. Well since having kids my weight has taken a toll on me and I am ready for a new chapter of my life. August 2017 I was accepted into the Bariatric program at our local hospital. I have re downloaded the app and love the new changes to it. I have been starting to track my food all the time. It is a lot easier now to track food. I am hoping in the next 6 months I get can my bariatric surgery that I am needing/wanting. I want to be a better mom for my kids and have more self esteem/feel better in my own body!!! I have had multiple opinions from people regarding bariatric surgery.... also didn't have the greatest support in the beginning. BUT I am pushing through and I am excited for the changes.
I am wanting people to talk to going through the weight loss journey and make new friends along the way. I would love to talk to anyone too who is at any part of your weight loss journey.

My heaviest weight was 310 pounds
Current weight : 280
Goal weight: Healthy and feeling good!!

    Hey there! I hope you’re still on MFP. I had Gastric Bypass on 1/2/2018. I’d love to walk through this adventure with you!

    Anyone around in the process of bariatric surgery? I had my first appointment yesterday. I really liked the doctor and loved the dietician. I have had a great morning with following my plan. Last night, I didn't eat when I woke up like I normally do.

    I'm 43 years old.

    Hope to make some friends and bounce questions off of people!
