    Hi...and Welcome...I've been on here about 3 weeks, and it has become my new obsession...(even over Face book) the tools are great and the people are awesome....The one thing I have learned so far, is Water...Water, Water.:grumble: ....but it does work, it helps with the hunger, and keeps your body flushed out. So good luck with your own journey :flowerforyou:

    I haven't been on the site for too long, but I'm already having success! I have found it helpful to take things slow. I didn't change my habits very much to start - I just logged in each day and tracked honestly. Then I chose a small thing to change at a time - drink more warer, start walking, eat more veggies, etc. I also find it motivating to make my diary visible to friends...keeps me accountable.

    Good luck!
