in Introduce Yourself
I'm 31 years old, weigh 250 lbs and need to get to 190 lbs. I've tried and tried and seem to always give up but this time I'm not. I have a 3 yr old daughter that I want to be able to be active with. I don't want to feel tired and drained anymore. This is my first week and on Monday morning I am going to weigh myself. I've done good so far with my calorie intake and trying to exercise as much as I can. I'm going to do this, for me and for my family.

    Just counting the calories is a great start. After that work into light exercise and increase it as you start feeling better about it.

    Welcome to MFP! :)
    You can do this!

    If you want what you do not have, you must do what you have not done. ;)

    Good luck.
