Hi!

Im Amy and I am a few months shy of my 21st birthday. While I wouldnt consider myself 'fat' I would like to be able to get to a comfortable weight that makes me happy with me.

I love food, probably a little too much, so I need to learn how to portion control. I dont enjoy thinking about working out but once I have started I actually find myself enjoying it. I always get such a feeling of accomplishment when I finish.

I am concerned about the health issues in my family and for that reason I feel I need to monitor my weight more than the average person.

I hope that MFP will help me along my way by making me more accountable for my actions, remind me to exercise & have a supportive network to encourage me along!!!

xoxo
Amy

    Welcome! You're definitely in the right place! I've only just started (I just turned 21 and decided it was time to be healthy), but I'm daily encouraged by everyone's kind words and computer *high fives* (yes, they exist!). Good luck on your journey to a healthier you; you can do it!! :)
