    Welcome! Yeah that is pretty cool that your doctor recommended this - not that we needed told by a professional how helpful this site is but I'm glad its getting well due recognition. I'm ending week 3 on MFP and I'm beginning to feel much better. Getting in the groove of a healthy lifestyle isn't simple but with our help you can do it! Good luck! :smile:
