I'm new to My Fitness Pal

Bethia

Hi everyone! I just started with My Fitness Pal 4 days ago with my daughter. We are both trying to lose weight before her wedding on June 11, 2011! I did real good with my calories the first 2 days but went out to eat yesterday and went over 607 calories. - oops! but I can see that this will really help me be accountable. It's hard training my stomach to not think it wants more right after I eat a reasonable size meal! But I try to drink water afterwards. It seems to be helping.
I'm really looking forward to any all tips that anyone wants to send my way.
My daughter, Annie, and I are in my profile picture.
Happy New Year!!!

Hello! And congrats on the upcoming wedding! I remember when I was trying to lose weight for my wedding almost two years ago. It was hard, but it sure was motivating! However, after my wedding I quickly put on 20 more pounds. That's what brought me here. It's more about setting one long-term goal; it's really about changing your lifestyle. Just take it one day at a time!
