    First off, grats for joining up! 30 lbs is a nice goal. I recommend planning how you want to change your current lifestyle to adapt to a new and healthier lifestyle. Once you have that figured out, the pounds will start dropping. Remember, what you eat makes the most impact, but you don't have to necessarily stop eating everything you love. Using MFP will help you control portion sizes and adjust accordingly. Good luck!

    Welcome to the site & good luck! I can't give you tips on how to lose in the midsection... That is really the reason I checked this topic- hoping someone had a secret! haha I just started myself, but have lost 13 lbs in 8 days. I have made a change in my eating habits and have added in a little exercise. Nothing too drastic. I can't tell a huge difference since I've lost the 13 lbs except that I dont constantly feel bloated and like "stacked fat". Without being bloated, the midsection looks and feels SO much better! The biggest changes I've made are no fried foods & no soda. I've cut my portions down as well and started walking. I was a BIG eater and always on the run... guilty of eating lots of fast food. I also stay away from that mess! You can do this! Congratulations on renewing your vows and best of luck to you!! :) Feel free to add me if you like.

    You cannot target weight-loss. Trimming a mid-section is all about counting the calories. Just be diligent about entering in your foods and don't go over your daily caloric allotment.
    Exercise 30min 5 days a week.
    Good luck.
