Hello there, I used to think the low calorie or calorie counting life was never for me....but then after getting married and deciding to become a father of 2 the scale disagreed with that stance. So recently I started pursuing to drop weight I have put on from "life" and want to be a role model for my kids so we can hang at Disney and they can be proud that there dad is juicy AF lol jk. But seriously if anyone has pointers or tips I'm all ears. I'm just following; staying under my calorie goal, eating a lot healthier, and staying very active between my drumming career and working out. Nice to find this app and I hope everyone the best in their pursuit of happiness.

    Hi Josh. MFP has become an obsession for me when tracking my meals and macros. Although I meet, exceed or don't meet some of my macros; I'm still losing an average of 1 to 1.5 lbs a week. Consequently, my weight loss has been slow and steady which is the best way. Replacing coffee with oolong and green tea has helped a lot as well as following this simple and most effective rule: 80% Clean Diet + 20% Exercise = WEIGHT LOSS!

    Last, there are no shortcuts! Creating a calorie deficit (through moderate calorie restriction and increase in physical activity) is the only way to lose weight. Any plan that does not require sacrifice is unrealistic and leads to failure.

    YOU CAN DO IT!!! :)
