Hello, and welcome!

Calorie counting can for sure work, for those whom it suits. There is a bit of a learning curve, though: Hang in there.

There's a lot of good information in the "Most Helpful Posts" part of each Community forum topic area. Reading those things as you have time may be helpful. I'd start with the ones from Getting Started and General Health, Fitness and Diet. Direct links here:

You mention having been dieting . . . what kinds of things have you learned so far, either things to do or *not* do, that you're thinking will help you this time?

Wishing you great success!
