You guys can do it! And MFP is a good first step. Just like Jillian Michaels says, first you have to pay attention. Keeping track of calories and exercise is critical. The rest is just discipline. You're in the right place!!!

hey nicole thank you. and good luck on your weight loss as well remember that when you make a mistake and give in to temptation, it's only a failure when you dont embrace the mistake by learning and getting right back on it.
