in Introduce Yourself
Hello All,

I am a twenty-six-year-old single mother to a nine-year-old boy who is quite active I must say. It's time to shed the weight and be more active with my boy. I've joined MFP six days ago, and I am amazed by how helpful this site can be. I am loving every moment of logging in my calories and keeping track of my eating habits. I have dieted on and off my entire life never losing anywhere near the amount of weight I would like to lose, so I am hoping to meet some encouraging and supportive pals that are on the same journey as myself. Hope to meet some great people. xx

Vanessa
