Joining MFP you've made a great start, just stick with it and keep the motivation going. Get a great group of friends for the support, and be true to all the food that you log! I find that if I prepare for the week, it makes a difference.

Adopt-a-Noob is an awesome program. Read the first post in the thread. If you think it's a good idea for you, Read through the entire thread. All 9 pages. Select some mentors that you think might be a good fit for you, and message them. Don't post in the thread, that's not how it works. You might find some of the mentors who have posted on the last couple pages are more likely available. But, it's a good idea to read through the entire thread, anyways.
