Hi Everyone,

I'm Ammi from Virginia Beach. Weight has been a struggle for me for years and I'm looking to
start a new chapter in my life. If anyone has any tips and suggestions or motivation that can
help someone starting from scratch all over again it would be greatly received and appreciated.

    Hello Ammi,
    Welcome to MFP = My fitness pal.. we have a great support system here so Jump right in! ..
    Start with listing everything that goes into your mouth and see how you're eating first.. and of course list your water and exercise too.
    In no time you'll be dropping weight and feeling healthier.
    I've been here since June 1st, 2011 and I have a long ways to go but I dont mind because I'm seeing results on the scale and in my clothes. .. All it takes are those first steps and you're doing it!!

    Friend me if you like :smile:

    Monica :heart:

    Hi and welcome. This is a great site for tips and motivation, so joining was a great first step. When I started out, I made sure I tracked everything, and didn't leave out or lie about my portions (no matter how bad I knew I did). Eventually you start learning what you should, and shouldn't eat. Good luck to you on your journey.

    Hi Ammi, welcome! I've only been here for a lil over 2 weeks but OMG what a wonderfully supportive place this is! I have already met some amazing people here. I think you'll enjoy your journey with the MFP clan, they help make it so much easier to be honest and true to yourself! Please feel free to add me if you'd like.

    Some say motivation doesn't last...well neither does bathing, that's why its recommended daily.
    Good luck in your weight loss journey! Here's hoping that MFP is the perfect little spot of motivation for you!
