    Welcome to MFP and good Luck on your journey. My suggestions are to log EVERYTHING you put in your mouth, and get some form of exercise everyday even if its just a quick 20 minute walk. Watch portion sizes - measure everything in the beginning until you get used to seeing what normal portions are. You can do this!!

    I too HAD 100+ to lose....almost to my have way point now. I've tried every weight loss "diet" on the market; every pill in the book including Redux (does anyone remember that?); every taco or cabbage soup, green bean fade and have enough weight loss books to start my own library. Truth is...no one can do it for YOU except for YOU. MFP is a great tool to help you attain every goal you set. The keys to weight loss for ME are:

    Food journaling (MFP)
    Water
    Making the food I like fit into my daily intake
    Water
    Staying true to myself
    Making the life change about ME and no one else
    Water
    Did I mention Water????

    Good luck with your life change and new choices.

    YOU CAN DO IT! I KNOW YOU CAN.

    Haha...this is so funny to me, and YES, you did mention water once or twice...lol I completely feel where you are coming from, as I think I have or have at least read ALL of those books you talked about. I've also owned at least 13 different workout videos at any given time. The beauty that I have found about this site is that we are all here for the same reason, to figure out how to do this the right way and not necessarily the quick-fix way. I know that I want to not only lose the weight but keep it off for the long haul. It's hard, but it will definitely be worth it in the end.

    Good luck...feel free to add me, and that goes for everyone in the same boat.
