So excited!!

Hello everyone! Im so glad i found this website!! I think its just what i need to keep my on track and motivated!

A little about me I..I am 38 and a mother to 2 teenage girls and have found my prince charming in my fiance :) I have been struggling with my weight since my early 20's and have never been happy with the way i look. This past year something changed, and i am learning to love myself and am still getting to know myself after being lost in a 7 year toxic relationship. I am at the point in my life where I want to be healthy and feel good about my body. I have been to weight watchers and was successful with that and lost 40lbs..7years ago. That weight is back plus some. I know weight watchers works but i do not like their new program it simply did not work for me and i found myself wanting to go back to the flex program. Ive decided that i am going to try this website after googling a calorie counter and having heard about it from a couple of co-workers.

Im looking forward to getting to know some of you and your stories :)

PS does anyone know why i cant view my reports on here? I just get an empty text box with a little blue circle in it with a line through it?

Colleen

    Hello Colleen! Welcometo MFP and how awesome that you have discovered YOU!!! and got out of the bad relationship!
    I am also 38 and mother to two teens although mine are boys and one is now an official adult!
    Have you logged a food diary or exercise as of yet? Until you log food and or exercise it may not be able to produce reports.

    Good luck on your journey and enjoy it!!!!!
