Hello everyone! I just signed up for My Fitness Pal today. I am learning all the tools that it offers. If anyone has any advice please feel free to mesage me. I only know one person who uses this site and she is doing an AWESOME job loosing weight! She looks great and I am jealous!! I am a mom of 3. I started to gain my weight when I met my husband. And then it just kept coming when I became pregnant with my first child. Before I could loose that baby weight I was pregnant again with my second child. They are only 11 months apart and although they keep me on my toes they also keep me to busy to eat right. I know that excuses are just that, excuses! But if I don't use that excuse then I have to admit I was just lazy!!! LOL And my kids are now 7 and 8 yars old!!! So it is way past time to get off my butt and do something about my lifestyle!!!0

Hiya. Congrats on getting started. Im a single mum of 3 and have much the same problems as you. To be honest I use the app
on my phone more than the websiteand it makes such a difference - always log everthing I eat as I eat it so i dont 'forget' about
it, lol!
I'm a bit of a couch potato but have invested in a treadmill which I am using every other day and its making a bit difference and its
alot cheaper than the gym!
Feel free to add me if you like, good luck x0 -

I had the same problem with my son....I ended up making him a "snack box" in the fridge, which is basically a large tupperware container filled with healthy snack options (string cheese, yogurt, baggies of different fruits and veggies, pepperoni, etc). He doesn't mind eating the healthy food, as long as he knows he is in control of picking what he eats. Good luck on your weight loss journey, and feel free to add me!0

I think by being here you are on your way. You have a desire to get healthy but it wont happen overnight. I have gained and lost and gained and lost like many others have but I finally feel I'm going to be in this for the long haul this time. It might be slow but my husband says to always, "celebrate the direction". I'm a stay at home mom with a high school daughter and a college aged son so I really have no excuses except for being lazy. You are a busy single mom and work so I imagine you have a difficult time fitting everything in. I think one of the biggest keys to success is to find time to plan out your menus. That way you always know what's on tap for each day. Just don't give up. Just make one or two changes at a time and before you know it you'll be all the way back on track. And I expect your son will follow your lead. It may take him awhile but maybe we can all help you out with ideas for creative meals for picky eaters. Stay strong. We're here for you.0
