    Hi Koka, and welcome to THE best site on the web! :flowerforyou:
    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! :wink:
    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! :noway:
    Also, drink LOTS of water, it REALLY DOES help! :drinker:

    Well, living in Las Vegas is soooo much different than the midwest. I was a flight attendant for 4 years (2001 to 2005) before I was a mommy, so I've been exposed to many different places and cultures. NEVER thought I'd end up here in the desert! LOL. I must say, I love Vegas winters. A little chilly without the snow......and great weather to jog in! :flowerforyou:

    Welcome. This site is a life saver.

    I'm from Chicago too and lived in Vegas for 5 years. We moved back to the Chicagoland area 2 years ago.
