Hello My Fitness Pal Family!

My name is Antonia and I started my joruney today, May 4th, 2012. I've been passionate about health and wellness for sometime now, but am ready to make a serious change by having accountability and the support of a community. My goal is to reach 145 pounds, but more importatly just be healthy- healthy mind, spirit, and happy life. :)

Living by the three E's- energy, enthusiasm, and efficiency-let's go!!!

    Welcome! I am just starting here as well. I signed up in Jan., but didn't do anything with it until a few days ago. My goal is 145 also! The support I have received in just a couple of days has been wonderful. I know you will find the same!

    Hello Everyone!
    I am relatively new here myself, I joined a few weeks ago. I really love this site, a girlfriend and co-worker turned me on to it. I have been reading the message boards tonight looking for some inspiration....found A LOT!! I have been following this on 1200 calories per day, and set a goal for myself to exercise at least 3 times per week. I am a single parent and have a stressful, government job. Needless to say, by the time I get home from work, spend a bit of time with my daughters, do dinner....the last thing on my mind is getting out for a walk. In my first week I lost 9lbs and haven't lost anything since - its been about two weeks. I know as soon as I get out once it will be all I need to continue, but its getting out for that first time that is killer!! I look forward to reading many more posts and getting inspired by everyone!

    Hi ! I just started yesterday! Stil trying to figure everything out but Im catching on! This site is great. I CANT WAIT TO LOSE WEIGHT!!!! I was testing the site to see if my calorie goal would change when I changed the settings of sedentary lifestyle to more active and my calories stayed at the same number? If i was less active just in daily stuff wouldn't I requre less caloreies?

    GETTING MARRIED in 4 months and really want to be fit for that day
