    Hi...My name is Jessica; I am 25 and I have never tried an online food journal before. I am 5'6" and weigh about 170 pounds. My doctor tells me a healthy weight for my body type is 150, so that is my target weight. Secondly, my husband and I are trying to get pregnant with our first child and I would really like to lead a more active and healthy lifestyle for the health of my future children. I go to Jazzercise three times a week and go jogging two days a week. I am not a very good runner, but my eventual goal is a half-marathon sometime in the next year. My husband and I are relatively active, but it is not nearly enough, plus we really like to snack.

    Hopefully this goes well.

    Look forward to chatting with all of you as we reach our goals together!

    Jess

      I've ever tried an online food journal either, but this website looked very helpful and all the members seem to be very friendly:smile:
      Here's hoping it works out for all of us!
