Hello all, I went to the Dr. this week to discuss my plans to become pregnant this year, and she suggested I lose some weight first, for both my health as well as my future babies health, she suggested this website as a great tool to utilize, so here I am 
I have tried so many things in the past to no avail, so I am pretty discouraged....hopefully with the help of this website I can change my life path

Yes, good luck with both of your projects.
I've been using the site for about 20 days.
It takes a little time to get rolling. (data entry of your own foods and database searching of others) but it really starts to kick in. I try to update right after eating/drinking so I know the score for the rest of the day. If I get close to my total cal intake, I just stop taking in cals.
I'm in no hurry. I'll drop it the same speed as I put it on: years.
You may have another time schedule.
Again - best of luck.0 -
Thanks for all of your supportive comments, I am really excited to get started and to watch that ticker go! I am already feeling a large amount of support0
