My Fitness Pal

I found a new website that I have to share with all of you! I was introduced to the website www.myfitnesspal.com by Stacie and Chris Clark of Tiger Athletics. I was introduced to Stacie and Chris through a friend about a month ago, and I continue to work with them to reach my weight loss and fitness goals before my wedding (that's right, if you haven't heard, I'm getting married Oct. 2, haha). When I started working out with Stacie, she had me sign up for this FREE website that tracks your exercise and the amount of food you eat every single day. It really holds me accountable for each piece of food I put in my mouth, and for the amount of exercise I'm doing (or not doing). You just enter your weight, height, fitness goal (weight loss, endurance, etc.) and this website literally tells you how many calories you have left to eat every day. AND, if you workout, you're rewarded with MORE calories each day. It's basically a calorie in, calorie out kind of monitoring system. You need to be burning more calories than you're consuming in order to lose weight... pretty simple. If you're an over-eater and don't know how to use portion control, this website will really keep you in check. I am struggling with entering all of my food and exercise into the website everyday, but I am making it a priority because it is very important (who isn't busy right?!). Since I love hearing about new things out there that you're excited about, I thought I'd share something with you that I'm very excited about!
