Hi from Georgia!

First time using this app! I’ve been trying to find different ways to keep myself motivated. From apps to documentaries. I’ve taken this weight loss journey numerous times and I anyways seemed to lose that motivation. I’m one of those yo-yos. Always up and down! This time, I’m trying my very best to stick to it! Im changing my lifestyle and getting serious. I have 75 pounds to go till my goal weight. I started myself on a whole new diet. I am now vegan. Totally changing up what I have always been use to. I also started going back to my gym! Any tips of how this app can help and the different ways it can help?!

Welcome,

I think these two links are extremely helpful and can help you get the most out of MFP:

http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1234699/logging-accurately-step-by-step-guide/p1

http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1080242/a-guide-to-get-you-started-on-your-path-to-sexypants/p1

The first covers accurate logging and some of the tools in MFP to help you make things easier. The second discusses caloric needs and setting goals. These two posts completely changed my MFP experience and helped me be much more successful, so I hope they do the same for you.

~Best wishes on your journey

Georgia here, also.

If you're planning on exercising, I would highly suggest some sort of Fitness tracker. It motivates you, and keeps you accountable.
