in Introduce Yourself
I am fairly new to my fitness pal. I found it discouraging at first as I was often going over my calorie intake etc. BUT that is the point to see what I need to change. I have learned so much about different foods and their nutritional value Even the HEALTHIEST of foods-I would see my intakes increase on these hence my discouragement. I think I am getting the hang of it some but I am always open to learning more. Looking forward to this journey.

    Welcome to MFP and the boards @Jacbrush0527

    That was likewise my experience starting out. It’s hard getting the hang of it at first but it becomes second nature pretty quickly. Logging was shocking at first, but I tamed it as I learned good substitutions and found new foods.

    You sound a lot like me in the beginning and I successfully lost 40% of me. 😇
