Hi Everyone,
My name is Amanda, I am a new member to myfitnesspal, but I have lost 97.2 pounds so far with 154.8 to go!!! I was going up and down 5 pounds the whole month of August so I decided I needed to make a change. I wanted more accurate calorie counting so I signed up for myfitnesspal. In addition to eating better, I am working out with a personal trainer and ballroom dancing. I also go for walks and enter 5Ks to raise awareness for issues I am passionate about!
Please post and introduce yourself. Maybe we can make a few friends on here. If you are from Central PA let me know, as I live and work there!
Peace and much success,
Amanda

I'm Charlene. Congratulations on your weight loss journey so far. You should be very proud of yourself. While I am not from Central PA, I have been to Allentown for work. Are you far from there?0
