HI! I started MFP last Monday. I found this site and thought it would be a wonderful place to tackle my weight challenges. I am proud to say that after my first week I have lost 3.8 lbs! I have a long way to go, but every journey starts with that first step and last Monday I took it! :bigsmile:

    Great job. I started 2 weeks ago today and have lost 8 pounds. Its great. There is a lot of support and the tools are great. Just stay accountable and sign in everyday and log your food. I never really wanted to log all the food before but this isn't to bad. Keep up the good work. Have a nice day.

    That is great, I was with MFP for two weeks. I love teh support tha tI am getting and that we are all here for one another. I have so much weight to lose like over 200 pounds and if I think in those terms of lsing that much then I will never get through this but if I break it down into smalller more manageable goals then maybe this time i will achieve it. It can be done and you will be amazed at how many people you will inspire by taking weight off. You can do this I believe in you!

    Jazzberry09 Thanks for the encourgagement. I have joined the 20 lbs. by Halloween challenge. Have you joined that yet? If not it would be great thing to do. We are calling ourselves the H20 group. Corny, but percise in what it represents.

    KiKi17 Thank you for the encourgagement. I read your profile. What an exciting, and I know a little bit scary, time of your life. I love to read and have the utmost respect for those who can take you to another world just through their written words. As you said things happen for a reason and you finding this site happened for a reason too. You have goals to accomplish and this is a great site for the tools and encouragement you need to meet those goals!
