    Today is day 2 for me. I used the site last year then slacked off on logging my food. I contined to eat more healthy for a couple of months but then fell back into my bad habits. I found that logging my food really did make me pay attention to how much fat and cholesterol I was taking in. I'm older than you and know how hard it can be if you wait till your 40's to do something! I encourage you to take control now before metabolism changes and hormone changes make it even harder LOL!! Great job for reaching out for help and congrats on your upcoming wedding. You can do this!! Feel free to add me as a friend if you want and good luck
