Hello there! I've been on the site for over a month, but haven't engaged in any of the other features of this site/app...my husband Zac just introduced himself so thought I would do the same!

I don't drink sugary things except for the occasional small OJ on Sunday mornings. But I didn't realize how much I was adding in calories/fat when I got my DD coffee with CREAM! Already this site has been helpful..and they say having support helps...so here goes!

Maggie

    Greetings from Bucks County Maggie! You and Zac are welcome to "friend" me for additional support!
  • Hi Maggie,
    I am 31yrs old too. I joined MFP almost a year ago, but I am not consistent with using it at all. I am starting new today! This time I will committ to using it daily. I need to lose about 20lbs. I am a bridesmaid on July 27th and my dress doesn't fit :(
    We can do this! You took the first step by joining :)

    P.S. The Celtics are going to win. :))
