I was going to start dieting at the beginning of 2014 and I failed miserably. I still haven't had a soda yet this year!

Last time I weighed ( around 1 week ago) I weighed 318 LBS! so I am going to start using MFP to start tracking my calories and macro's as best as i can! I am not going to limit myself to only eating meals I can track perfectly ill just do as best as i can.

add me

    I am in the same boat brother. It's a struggle to break some of these habits. You haven't failed miserably if you've kicked soda. I haven't been able to completely do that yet. So you're a step ahead of me!

    Congratulations on not having the soda - that's a step, and while it might feel like a baby step on a long journey, as long as it's a step going forward you're doing well!

    I promised myself when I joined MFP that I would be honest about the food I eat, even if it wasn't stuff that was good for me. So far - nearly 2 months - I've been honest and listed everything. What's funny is that even if I have what I think is a bad day, it's still WAY better than the way I was eating before. I can see, because I've recorded everything, where I've gone over my numbers and where (surprise!) I'm under.

    I even recorded the 2 french fries the neighbour's kid gave me - I didn't really want them, they were cold, but you gotta encourage kids to share, lol!

    Good luck with the rest of your journey!

    Good luck to you on your journey, kicking the soda for me is so hard, but I'm trying, stay encourage, add me.
