in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone,

I'm new to the site. I have joined other sites in the past. I have tried to go back and use them as inspiration again, but just can't seem to stick with it. They were really only forums, so I'm excited about this site. I was "googling" calorie tracking journals and found MFP. It looks really good and am hoping it will make me track all my food and exercise on a regular basis.

I understand the concept of losing weight. Theory it's straight forward - calories in vs calories out. My problem it that I can't be bothered to track down all the calories I am consuming and I'm not active enough right now in order to warrant figuring out the calories burned. I'm hoping that this site will help me to start to keep track and be more aware of what I'm consuming. As well as, becoming more active again.

I need to shift my focus back to me a little and it starts now........

Here's to a Happy New Year and a Happy New Me!

    Hi...I'm new here too...day 2! I absolutely LOVE this site...it's easy to search the foods and track your calories...It's become a challenge to have a few calories left at the end of the day. I'm not starving or miserable...I feel like I am in control with the organization and accountability this site offers. Good luck to you!
