Hello from the west coast! Fall of 2024 gOaL-gEtTeR!
Hello While I have been using the app (intermittently) to log my foods for a few months, I hadn’t introduced myself to connect with other gOaL-gEtTeRs. I have a goal to lose 18 lbs in 18 weeks👋
New to MyFitnessPal & tracking foods
I joined per VShred nutritionist suggestion to help track my macros and foods. Hopefully this’ll make it easier as learning all this can be overwhelming. Crossing my fingers it’ll become automatic soon.
