Want this. Want this. Want this.

Hi! I am a 46 year old female who has 56 lbs to truly lose (as in never find it again). I lost that much about 8 years ago and I let it slowly creep back on. No one to thank, but myself. I want to truly lose it this time, as in "not reach a goal and party" but truly make a lifestyle change. Slow but steady. We got this.

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
