Hello everyone,
I am new to myfitnesspal, and was invited to try it from some fellow classmates. I am looking to get myself in better health, since I am suffering from many health issues. I am overweight, and need to lose about 40 - 45lbs. I am hoping that get healthier with also control some of my medical problems. I can use all the support I can get. I tend to get really discouraged. I have tried so many programs, and none have worked.

    Hi,

    You've come to the right place for support.

    Search forums looking for people with similar needs (such as age, location, medical conditions) and you'll be bound to get a lot of tips.

    Cheers

    Hi, I am also new but already feel that this is the right place to be, the fact that i can add things onto my ipod as i eat makes it easier and also that i can ask for advice and help on using the site to the best that i can. We are all here for the same reason so please do ask for help if/when you need it.
    Please add me as a friend for support if you like :O)
