in Introduce Yourself
Hi all,

Just joined this week and things are going well. I like the fact that there is no set diet plan and that you create your own menu and then see how many calories you're consuming. Great idea, simple but effective because there are no banned foods.

Have tried and failed with ridiculous quick-fix diets before, but I have a good feeling about this one.

Good luck to all the newbies and maintainers out there.

Bye for now.

Philip

    Welcome! I agree with you, MFP is a great tool for weight loss. I just restarted yesterday and am excited about all the tools here. My daughter and son-in-law just returned home from Ireland yesterday. I'm anxious to hear about their trip and see photos. Best of luck in your weight loss!

    Welcome and good luck! Not having any banned foods is a great help, because banning one just makes it more tempting to me!

    Welcome to the MFP family. You're going to find an amazing support circle here. I've been on for 25 days now and have lost almost 15 pounds.

    If you ever need a diet buddy, just send me a request. My motto is the more the merrier and the less we'll weigh!!!
