Hi, just joined. Hoping this website is error free unlike some of the others I had been on. Looking to lose about 2 lbs per week. I really like the food and exercise log, makes it easier to track. Have A LOT to lose, over 100 lbs. Got side tracked a few weeks ago and gained all the weight back I had lost since February. Keeping my fingers crossed.

    Welcome. Don't focus on how much you have to lose, that can get discouraging. I just focus on losing 1 pound a lot of times!!

    The hardest part is sticking to it. Once you make it second nature you won't get sidetracked again. Then after time when you go back to something that you use to love it won't taste as good and maybe even make you feel sick after eating it. Just won't be enjoyable anymore. At least that's been my experience! :)

    I use to always start a diet or gym membership and end it after 2 months... I've been doing this for 7 months now and I am so proud! I've had times where it was two weeks before I went back to the gym from being sick or busy but I've finally learned to stick with it!

    Welcome to MFP! It is a wonderful tool and you will certainly not regret joining! Keep up the attitude and good work and you'll get those pounds off again before you know it! :)
