Hi friends...

I joined myfitnesspal 5 days ago. It has changed my life already. I have tracked every thing I've put in my mouth. When I went to the Dr. last week, I weighed 260 pounds and I knew it was time to make a change. I started a 12 week program through my Doctor's office. That is when I discovered this app on my Droid.
I weighed in tonight and I've lost 6 pounds already! I am shocked but I guess I shouldn't be. I was probably consuming at least 2000 calories a day before...probably 2500. I didn't care and I paid no attention to labels. In the past 4 days, I've been able to cut down to 1200-1500 calories. My allowance is 1540 and I've been under everyday.
I would love some friends here for support. I don't want to start quickly and burn out. So feel free to add me as a friend.

You are doing a terrific job!!!!!! I too never kept track of what I ate and exercised when I got the urge. Using MFP has gotten me on the healthy track and giving me the motivation to exercise. I love it!!! I've been losing about a pound a week since I started just about 2 months ago. Feel free to add me as a friend!!0

G'day
I am finding this app a heaven send. So many Doctors and Dieticians have told me to keep a food diary in the past but I just did not have the motivation to do so, but this app makes it so easy and I don't have to wait till my next dietician's appointment to find out how I am doing. This is only my 3rd day but in all honesty I am already feeling the benefits from eating less and getting the support and motivation by reading other people's story....Good Luck.
