Hello! This is my first day of food and exercise tracking. A friend was using this, so I thought I would give it a try. I am a 53 year old wife, mother, and grandmother. I've been unemployed for 8 months, and have not felt motivated to do much of anything. I don't always eat right, and despite owning a treadmill, I have not walked or exercised in a long time.
