Hello - Introducing Myself

Options
Hello, I am 26 years old from Connecticut and am new to this site. I have recently started getting extremely dedicated to getting healthy and fit for both health reasons and aesthetics. I want to look good and want to feel good. After being a career college student, I have finally finished my Master's Degree and am seeking new career opportunities possibly in the law enforcement field. I need to get into shape to make that a possibility and want to wear a uniform with pride.

    Welcome to MFP & you've found a GREAT tool to help you achieve your goals. Friend me if you'd like! I've been on my journey more than 3 years with some amazing twists & turns & love sharing it with people! Best wishes! Best advice I can share on using MFP is to make sure when entering food that you double check the nutritional info when entering items - such as calories, serving sizes etc. Some of the stuff in system already can be wrong! Let me know if I can help you in any way!

    Hi from "the Wack"
    I'm 74 and about 80 pounds overweight. At one pound per week, it will be close to two years! Will I even be alive then? I've had
    Steady weight gain to an already overwight body, since having trouble with leg and back pain (osteoarthritis). Am rejoining an aquafit program that helped two years ago and hope it will again. So far, I have no friends to use as support, but that will happen I'm sure.
    Sure hope this helps a little.
