Hi everyone I'm MK. I just joined today after a close friend told me she was using a similar program to help her lose weight besides trips to the gym. I just started a new job two months ago, I notced at the required physical I had gained more than 10 lbs in the last year. I know that might not seem alot to some people but I noticed none of my work clothes fit, I'm tired most of the time and just overall not feeling good about myself. I joined this site to become heathier, more acitve and meet other people who are going throught the same thing.

    Well "hi" & welcome aboard. Sure glad u found this place, u know after I found this one. I actually have found like four other ones. I never knew there was ever any free diet & nutritional help available. I am so pleased to have found this place. I lost 7 lbs the first wk. now that is real good. I weigh in tomorrow & I'm so excited to see how much I have lost.

    Continue using MFP in anyway that u can to get ur needs met. Keep ur chin up! U r doing good, u will find this place works. U will find any support that u need.
