Hello my name is Nasr i recently gained a lot of weight after my brother died and i am kinda sick of feeling like this. I want to lose the weight i am currently 277 pounds want to get back to 190. It took me two years to gain so i am in no rush but would like to make friends a long the way to help keep me motivated.

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.

For more friends check out these threads which ended up gaining alot of traction.
