    Hi welcome to the start of a new life :)

    Don't think of it as a diet - think of it as a lifestyle update.

    Feel free to friend me. This site is great, I love it! It helps you make better food decisions because you log everything you eat and it keeps tally of things like exercise too. I hate logging poor food choices so I make sure to eat better and I try to log an exercise every day. It also makes you aware of how many calories some things have that most people don't know. It has sure opened my eyes!

    Hey feel free to add me too! I officially began "dieting" about a year ago so I know it can be challenging. I think the most helpful thing was realizing that it is a lifestyle change. I have a great workout regimen if you are interested....just message me!
