Hi. I'm Heather. I have a lot of weight to lose, and decided it's time to start working on it. My youngest (of three) will be 2 in October, and I'm no longer breastfeeding. So, I have no more excuses!
I have no idea what all I'm doing on this site, but I figure I'll learn as I go. Anyway, that's it! :-)

Hello and Welcome :flowerforyou:
MFP is the greatest diet aid tool I have ever found.:bigsmile: If I had to write all this stuff down....well..you know- I haven't got the time, much less remember. :grumble: Keep yourself accountable. Look up calories in foods your not sure about. Processed sugars and HFCS high fructose syrup are bad! :explode: Stay away from fast foods unless you know how many calories and what kind are in them. :noway: This is really about changing your life and way you eat forever. :flowerforyou: :drinker: Grabbing food for comfort or boredom is no longer an option! :noway: You must be aware of what, when and where you are eating. :happy: So get started! Get psyched! Get pumped! Grab your water bottles for plenty of filling/flushing H2O! :drinker: :drinker: :bigsmile: :smooched:

Welcome! I have been on here for about a month now and I'm loving it. It really helps to motivate you when you see just what you are getting from the things you put into your body. I also love logging how many calories I burn from exercise.
One thing I do sometimes is enter food that I am thinking of eating to see if it is really worth eating it. Keep at it and I know you will do great.0 -

Thanks, everyone! You are so kind!
I was shocked to discover the number of calories I consumed yesterday! :noway: While I'm still over my goal today, I'm at least significantly below yesterday's count! Baby steps, right? Plus, I'm trying to drink more water.
Dumb question - how do I add my ticker here?0
