Don't want to keep going down this road!

Hi everyone! I am excited to begin the MFP journey.

I am becoming obese (what a scary word!!!!) and want to make a u-turn! I try to eat healthy- specifically organic and local. Now it's time to eat the proper amount of calories and really get on the exercising. I am hoping MFP will help me stay motivated to to just that.

    Welcome to MFP. It is a great way to keep track of your calories. I know that being aware of what I was eating really helped me to change my eating habits. Best of luck to you in your journey to a heathier you. Just remember if you slip up... don't quit. No one is perfect and the longer you keep at this the better choices you will make.

    Welcome! This is a great tool! I love the way it keeps me aware of my protein intake, sugar, etc. And the exercise log too. You will get lots of support on your journey from all of us at MFP.
