I'm using myfitnesspal to eat healthier and at this point - more. My job was so stressful that I knew I had to really take care of my body in order to handle the stress at work. (I teach emotionally impaired teenagers) Instead of a car payment I drive a junker and invest in a :flowerforyou: personal trainer. She suggested this site, which I love. I enjoy running and being active. Losing weight is not the issue. My problem is building muscle. When I eat healthy and run, I lose weight. I need encouragement to eat more and build muscle. A few personal facts - I'm 48 years old, 5'6" and 118lbs. I also have a husband who runs marathons (10 mile was the most I ever completed) I'm good at giving support. It would be really nice to have a few friends on this website.:flowerforyou:

    Hi! i'm Jake. Best of luck and friend request sent! I was on here a bunch last year and it was sooooooo helpful, not only tracking my health, but the support and love i felt on here was AMAZING! Unfortunately most of my old buddies have drifted away, so I need some new friends too... Lets get healthy together! Here's to the future!
