Hi there! I started MFP on Jan. 2nd. I am hoping to reach my goal weight by the summer! We go to Fla. for vacation in the summer and I'm hoping to wear just a swimsuit this year. No more coverups!!

I'm new to this weight loss thing. I'd appreciate and tips or advice you have for a newbie. I don't usually struggle with my weight. I got the Mirena IUD over the summer and put on 12 lbs in 3 weeks. I've been struggling since then to lose it but have just put on more. I went up 2 sizes in 6 months. I've just recently decided to have it removed and hope that this will help with my weight loss.
