Polyam, pansexual, ER nurse losing weight slowly!
I’ve lived my entire adult life in a fat body. I have been 374lbs for the last year. I’m ready to change. I decided mid-January that I’m going to try to start losing weight again.

I am using the website version of myfitnesspal this morning and I find it to be more focused for the community section. Been a member since 2013 and occasional user I guess. I am pretty self aware of my diet, and used to track my meals, but it is quite cumbersome to track every single diet. #Iamback
