I've only been on the site for two days but already I'm glad I joined. I'm 36 years old with two kids under five years of age. I am a stay at home Dad and have seen the wieght building over the last four years. I need to lose fifty pouds before it gets any worse. I was big once before and I don't want to get that bad again. I'm expecting big things to come from useing this site because I plan on putting in the effert to see it happen.

    Hi, and welcome to THE best site on the web!
    Between the easy to use food counter (which by the way is SUCH an eye opener!) and all the wonderfully supportive members, you WILL be able to lose the weight that you want to, AND, it'll "almost" be easy doing it!
    I recommend logging ALL your foods BEFORE you have them, rather than later, as it tends to lead to better food choices. (not to mention you'll know if you've got enough numbers left to have a night time snack, like I ALWAYS try to do!) Some people also like to weigh and measure some things, such as meats, rather than just estimating and possibly being WAY off!
    Also, drink lots of water, that seems to help alot too. :drinker:
  • welcome and get ready for a great support group these people are great. I really like being accountable for all my food/. And it does make you make better choices so you are full. Also you are not hungry on this diet. Good luck
