here I am

Hello! This is my first post. To come clean:
--I am a 7 time WW drop out
--Was pregant 6 times in five years
--carried three babies to term
--and ready to admit that my weight problem is the person that is hauling the spoon


Last week I took my baby to the doctor and saw a BMI chart on the wall....I am now in the first block of obese. So here I am accepting that it is going to take work and time to get back in shape:frown: :embarassed: :blushing:

Good for you taking the first step and joining MFP. This site is a great tool for weight loss and a great place for support.

My beginners advice: log your foods meticulously, measure everything even if it makes you look crazy, eat your exercise calories,remember that a measuring tape is as good as a scale, and visit the forums often for support and education.

Welcome and best of luck to you! :flowerforyou:

Hi, and welcome to THE best site on the web! I'm a 3 time WW drop out, as well as Dr's and other diets too. I even tried hypnosis, TWICE! Nothing really worked though, until MFP!
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:
