Hi, I am brand new to this site and only found it when I downloaded the FatSecret app for my tablet.

I have been a widow and letting everyone know all about it for 7 years and now I have decided to pull my self up by my boot straps and re-join the Living. I am finally looking forward to reinventing myself. Along with feeling sorry for myself for the past 7 years I have picked up quite a bit of wieght. My daughter and I have sat on the couch and watched the Biggest Loser year after year, proding the contestants on as we munch on whatever sweets or snacks that we had chosen for the evening. NO MORE!! I don't only want to regain my selfworth by losing weight, I want to cultivate a new healthy lifestyle for both of us.

I love that I can search for anything and use this site to preplan meals so that I am not impulsivey grabing anything to eat. I have spent thousands of dollars over the last decade on weight loss schemes and I have finally realized there are no quick fixes, Hunh the Tummy Tuck Belt, I am ashamed to admit I have one. I have been looking for instant gratification because I was afraid I could not stick with a grueling diet. This weight did not appear overnight and it will not disappear without conviction and determination.

I have started a 1400 calorie a day diet and working out with Wii Fit to get moving. My life up till now has been seditary so I am taking baby steps to get moving.
