New Mom
Hi! I'm not new to My Fitness Pal, but wow, have I been slacking!! A lot has happened in my life since the last time I was really into this: big move, new job, new house, got married, and now I have a four month old daughter! I gained 29 lbs with my pregnancy and I've already lost it all and then some, but the problem is…

New with 36 lbs to lose!
Hi! I just signed up tonight and I like it already. It makes me feel better that I'm already on the right track with my eating. I started focusing on eating better a couple weeks ago and I've already lost 6 lbs. I've got a beautiful dress in my closet just waiting for me to be able to fit in it again. I'm the maid of honor…

And what a difference it makes from getting a #4 with no mayo at Jimmy John's to getting a #12 with mayo. Tonight, I went grocery shopping and I packed…

Accident-prone people shouldn't exercise.
I am accident-prone, and true to form, I hurt myself exercising. A few nights ago, we went and bought Dance Central 2 for the Kinect. I hate working out, and the only ways I like to exercise are swimming, walking, and dancing. I don't want to be seen in a swim suit just yet, and there's too much ice on the sidewalks for a…

Making Lists
One thing that has always helped me organize my life is making lists. This sounds obvious, but I've devised a way to really feel good about myself using these lists. When I need to clean house, I tend to get scattered and jump from room to room, task to task, without focus. When I make a list of the things that need to be…
