in Introduce Yourself
Hello, MFP!

Today's my 24th Birthday, and while I've been using MFP religiously for about a month now, and have lost at least 3 lbs (probably a little more, I try not to weigh myself often), and I know people have been saying I look smaller and some clothes have been fitting better, I KNOW I could be doing even more. So, today, I'm taking my Birthday as a time to renew my journey. I'm going to work even harder to ALWAYS meet my calorie and exercise goals. I'm not making any excuses, and I'm not holding anything else back. I'm going to be completely open and honest to MFP. I'll be a person who puts my successes and failures out there, who posts pictures, and who helps others as much as I can. I know it's not going to be easy, and I know I'm going to need people I can talk to , people who won't blindly support me, but give me praise when it's deserved, and also be hard on me when it's deserved. In return, I promise to do the same. I'm looking forward to celebrating my 25th Birthday a year from now as a healthier, thinner me, and I'd love to have people who have walked along with me for the next year to celebrate with me, too!

    Happy birthday. This is one of the best presents you could give yourself. You health should last a lifetime. And in case no one tells you - it is okay to splurge a little this one day. Celebrate life, celebrate your life! You are a special person.

    Happy birthday! I also recently had a birthday (25...yay!) and I told my boyfriend that this year I will make goals and do what I say I will do and be accountable for my weight loss so that when I turn 26 I won't look back and be mad that I weigh even more. I only just joined MFP yesterday, so I hope I can stick with it and use it to help me. So congrats on your great attitude and on your birthday, I know you can do it!
    Feel free to add me as a friend if you like :D
