Hiya! I'm Cindy 31 yo single mom.....I've been overweight since I was 9 years old. I just blew up over one summer and it hasn't changed since then. I currently Weigh 284, When I started my healthier me adventure I was 280. I don't know why I gained while I was doing this but I did.....Anyway, Dieting is not a stranger to me....or so I thought!! Then i found MFP......and WOW was alot of what I was told growing up wrong!!! I'm glad I found this site!!

5lbs gained and 1 lbs lost! Can't wait till I can say more then just that 1 lbs!!
