Hi! Check out this excellent post (read the original post on page 1): http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1080242/a-guide-to-get-you-started-on-your-path-to-sexypants
That contains most of the keys to using MFP successfully, in my opinion.
Don't try to lose weight too fast (hopefully someone else will come along with the ideal weight loss amount per week info, because I can't remember and can't seem to find it). And don't radically cut out whole food groups or types of food you like-- just eat less of them. That will result in a much more sustainable lifestyle change-type diet. Going gluten-free or dairy-free or added-sugar-free or ultra-low-carb may produce a quick weight loss initially, but those diets are generally very hard to stick to and don't allow you to learn how to eat your normal foods in a way that will let you lose weight and maintain that weight loss in the long run.
Good luck and welcome!0
