Hi All! Jersey girl here looking for some support :)

Babrao

Hi Everyone! I've been tracking my calories for the past month (actually this Thurs is 1 month). I've lost 10 pounds so far and I'm determined to lose at least 50 more which will get me back to where I was at 4 years ago, then I can work from there to get to my ideal weight. I knew I didn't always eat so great, but I never realized how bad I actually was eating, since counting my calories I have realized that I was consuming way more then I should have been, mostly from eating out. I am so happy to have found MFP, it is a great tool to have to succeed in my weight loss journey. For once in my life I have finally learned what I have to do to be healthy and I'm ready for the big change!!! I know this is not going to be quick or easy but I'm not going to back down. Please feel free to add me as a friend on MFP so that I can keep up with what everyone is doing.

Age: 31
SW: 267
CW: 257

First Goal: 230
Second: To be under 200

Hey! I feel the same way. I have been on here for a while, somewhat inconsistently but I am ready to go all the way! I feel MFP has really helped me to be more aware of how many calories I was consuming (especially eating out). I have made it my goal this month to drop 10 pounds and to keep on going. I started with a total of 60 pounds to lose. I am looking for adds also! This time I will stick with it, and hopefully have some MFP friends to keep me motivated!!! Good luck to you
