Hey everyone
I started MFP about two weeks ago and have already lost a couple of pounds and already feel better! I've been on between 1500 and 1600 calories a day and go on walks a couple of times a week. My current end goal is to fit in a pair of jeans (size 14 uk) then take it from there. I also have a bike/elliptical which I use but think it over exaggerates the calories burned. If anyone has any tips for me I'd like to hear them. Or just get some support!
Thanks

Hi,
I started MFP recently as well. I have a chronic illness (multiple sclerosis) and realized it might make a difference if I get healthy. Its amazing how easy it is to do this, with this website! Do you have any health tips for me?
Stay with it.. .don 't give up!0 -
Hey yeah it easy if you're focused! Probably just to drink lots of water and exercise as much as you can. Everything in moderation!0
