Joined a little bit ago. Here to track my diet after throwing out the excel file. Hope to have something of value to add later...but got nothing today.

So easy to lose track of our diet during happy and difficult times. Good luck with your journey! Hope you find inspiration within the MFP community.1

Yes, but half that is in your ficking bicep!1 -
Welcome to the community!
If you haven't already, read the stickies at the top of the getting started forum. Very informative and helpful.
Buy a food scale. Weigh everything you eat and log into the food diary.
Good luck with your journey!1 -
Thanks everyone! I’m down about 8 lbs total so far by eating fewer calories and moving a lot more! Next focus is to get macros in line in addition to just coming in under RMR calories everyday.0
