in Introduce Yourself
Hello there, my name is Jess and I just signed up for myfitnesspal. I have finally come to the point where my weight is out of control as well as becoming a health issue. I just had a baby 7 months ago, and since then I have put on 42 pounds. I have sleep apnea(sp?) as well, so in order to be healthy for myself and my children, It'stime to take control of the situation, and I'm ready!!! Would love to meet some new people who are trying the same thing I am...so feel free to message me...thanks and good luck to all of you in pursuing and reaching the goals you have set forth for yourselves!!!

    welcome. I sent you an add.
    I have sleep apnea too but unfortunately mine is inherited and not part of my weight. I'd love to be able to lose weight and get rid of the machine.
