in Introduce Yourself
Hi!

I've been using MPF for about 3 weeks now and...I've made one friend. I'm shy (both on an off line). I don't want to say the wrong thing.
I'm a grad student in Psychology and the main reason I want to get healthier is for myself. It used to be because my mom forced me to or she would insinuate to that I need to diet but each time it was for her, I would lost it and then gain it.
While staying on campus, I did lost weight to about 261 (my GW now) but gained back about 20 of it after graduating (lounging at home T.T).

I hope to get some motivation from here (which I have been from my friend and reading the message boards).

I guess that's all I can say besides I have a love for Kpop and I'm a crazy Twitter and turning into a MFP addict.

:-D

    Congratulations on taking the steps towards doing this for yourself. There is no reason to be shy here, just about everyone is so friendly and helpful. Keep logging on and entering in your food diary information, and you will see success. I have been here for about 4 months and I really love it, it has been working for me and so many others.

    You can add me; I'll be your friend; I know a thing or two about being shy as well.
