I began MFP 3 days ago. This is an amazing website and will be a fantastic tool towards my weight loss. I have been through A to Z with diets. Know them all. This has put structure and control back into my eating and exercising habits.

I am a believer in preventative health, so my sister, husband and I had a calcification scoring done of our heart. The blatant truth was there. Plaque in the arteries. This forced my hand in being more aggressive towards a change in lifestyle. I will use MFP to help me reverse this. Thank You.

    Welcome! You can do it!

    For me it really help me see what I was truly eating everyday and it was a big wake up call!
    When I first stared I ate as I normally would and without realizing it I was eating/drinking like 3,000 or more calories! I was shocked!
    MFP has really helped me *kitten* my eating habits and make some changes. I am sure it will do the same for you!

    Welcome---congratulations on taking the right steps toward better health. I started the same journey for my health 7 months ago. Came off all my meds now and I feel like a new person.

    Good luck to you :)

    My biggest problem is after 6pm!!!!! I work crazy hrs and shifts, do great from breakfast to dinner. It's at night, constantly heading for the kitchen, picking thru the fridge and cupboards. I have healthy snacks in both, but the problem is I don't stop til it's all gone!!! Any suggestions sure would help. Thanks Sharon
