    Weight loss comes from eating less calories than you burn. Get a food scale to weigh the food you eat to ensure accurate logging. Welcome to MFP!

    Hello. We are in the same boat. I'd like to lose a 100lbs as well. Add me if you like. On those bad days it's nice to have someone to relate to and talk to.

    Big tip - slow and steady wins the race, it's a lifestyle change not a crash diet so just take it super slow and you'll get there :smile:

    Biggest tip food wise is to weigh out all your food - don't guesstimate.

    And above all just be positive! Take little steps, you've done this before so you're familiar with the process, just enjoy taking the steps to being the healthiest version of you.
