Hi, I feel like I am standing up in an AA meeting like on TV. Anyways, I'm new to this site and it's app, but i must say my first week of using it has been an awesome experience. I use to pay to use CalorieKing.com, but this is better and free, so that helps. Anyways, i have long term goals of loosing around 150+ lbs, so I plan to be here a while and well, just thought I'd say hi. I imagine my party days are going to continue to slow down as I refrain from alcohol and the casual chips and dips effect from bar and club hopping. My marathon running girlfriend helps out a lot with that and keeping me 'settled' down, so that's a relief. Again, I jsut wanted to say hello and kind of go from there. Have a great day everyone!

    Hi welcome! I have only been here almost 2 weeks, but i love it already! So supportive, and the best part is, you start to change your mind and thinking of food, just by being aware of what you are eating!!! :)

    You're gonna love this place (as a former CalorieKing gal myself). And I'm excited to see more men! Congrats on making the commitment to yourself.

    Welcome and I'm glad you are already seeing the benefit of this site. It is amazing and has been a big help to me and the way I eat. My husband is supportive and is even liking my health dinners we are eating.

    Hi! I am too began using MFP as an app on my phone .. really loved how convenient it was and free. Eventually I began using the site to check my food log for sodium, fats, sugar etc because you can't see those on the app. And the more I use this site the more I find it helpful and inspiring ! Feel free to add me as a friend I am here for awhile too :)
