Hello from Ontario, Canada

Options
Hi all, I am a 54 year old female that really, really, really needs to lose weight. I have been blaming my hysterectomy in July for all of my weight gain but I know that is not the case. My weight gain really started last Valentine's day (chocolate), Easter (chocolate), holloween (chocolate), Christmas (chocolate)!!! I have now declared myself allergic to chocolate.

A colleague told me about this site and everything she said is true. This is a great site and I look forward to sharing my goals with you all.

    Hello Ontario Canada! I live in Sydney Australia but was born in and grew up in Ontario. I miss it!!!

    Don't be so down on yourself, chocolate is such an amazing pleasure and should actually be encouraged!!! Try dark chocolate and smaller bars of more luxurious brands like Lindt and Green & Blacks Organic... :-P

    Good luck, you've come to the right place and you've already made step one which is the biggest and hardest so GO YOU :)

    Saw your introduction post and it sounds like you need some support! You'll find that logging your food and exercise along with making new friends who are motivated to lose just like you is an incredible resource. Welcome to MFP!

    I'm from Ontario, Canada as well. Ottawa to be precise. I joined 2 days ago and love it here. It's really motivational. I've lost 6 pounds on my own since the New Year until a frined told me about this site. I decided to join while tackling my last 10 pounds of my goal. :happy:
