Hello everyone!!!!! So I changed my macros to 20C/40F/40P and I upped my calories because I was going to work out more intensely this month.

Scared to weigh myself
Okay so I took the batteries out my scale and threw them out the door a couple of weeks ago because I started becoming obsessed and disappointed in the fluctuations!!!

Any single mothers out here?
Are there any single mothers on MFP? Seems like all who participates is either married with children, or are engaged with no children. Well, a lot of the time it's just me and my son.
