:flowerforyou: This is my second day and I'm loving the way the log helps me keep tabs on my intake. I've tried so many diets/fads before and given up. I believe this site is the key for me.
My daughter is getting married in September and I want to lose as much as I can by then. Pray for me to have the strength to continue this effort and reach my goal of losing 45 lbs even if not by September.

    Hi, and welcome to THE best site on the web! I hear you with the trying everything out there. Same here, including hypnosis, twice! Nothing really worked until I came here to MFP! This place is fantastic!
    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, it REALLY DOES help! :drinker:
