Losing weight for health and self esteem

Hi all-I am new here and have decided that the time is now or never for me. I am 203 pounds and so unhappy with the way I look, I won't even allow pictures to be taken of myself. On top of that-I am soooo out of shape that I get winded just walking up a couple of flights of stairs. It is embarrassing! I don't want to do this anymore and so, it is time to make a change. I know I can do it-9 years ago I lost 70 pounds on weight watchers. I am not doing that program again but am going to track everything I put in my mouth and get my big butt on the treadmill in my basement! I hope to get lots of motivation here and am looking forward to meeting new friends!

    Well - I have now been logging for 2 weeks and I am happy to report I am down 5 pounds! I am really happy about this and MFP is so easy that I feel like I can totally do this. I don't feel hungry, I don't feel like I can't eat what I want - I just work in into my calories. I am SOOOO happy I found MFP!
