    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:

    Hey everyone! I'm excited and frustrated at the same time. I've tried many ways to loose this weight, and nothing is working. I've joined Jenny Craig, only to gain most of it back! Very frustrating. And I really have no one to blame but myself. But hopefully with this website, I'll be able to get back on track and finally realize that I need to stop dieting and start making that lifestyle change everyone keeps talking about. But how do I do that after all these years??? I give credit to those who can. HELP!!!

    Thanks everyone! I have already lost 5lbs since the end of Jan, just scaling back on what I eat. I just wanted to see EXACTLY what I am eating wrttten down. I have lost weight before (40lbs on Weight Watchers), but was going thru some things last year, and just stopped caring about what I eat, and how I looked. I gained 30lbs in 1 year ! :frown: Now, I am determined to lose it and keep it off! I am a busy stay at home mom, but I decided I needed to do this for me, since I do everything else for my family. I am joining a gym this weekend, so treadmill, here I come!!!
    Congrats to those of you who have lost weight!!
