kickstarting my weightloss

Hello,

So I made a myfitnesspal quite some time ago and never got around to really using it. I've not done too well with losing weight in the past but now that I'm finally starting to lose the lbs I think this site will be a great way for me to stay motivated. :)

My starting weight was 158lbs (have lost 2lbs this week) and don't really have a definite goal weight, but for now I'm thinking about 128lbs. Any tips and stuff would be greatly appreciated.

Claire

    Hi welcome to MFP and congrats on your decision to get started for real :-) this site is great for motivation and support and tracking and logging .. i would suggest however that you get some goals while you are starting .. something i did when i began was got a goal weight, also i wanted to have certain physical strength, and cardio as well.. benchmarks are always great to log progress .. things you are eating and things that you are not eating as well ... good luck to you on your journey and wish you the very best in success you can add me as a friend if you want ...
