Several of my chums are using this site and recommended it to me, and as I am constantly trying to loose weight, I checked it out and it looks like a great way of monitoring what I eat and drink. I have zero will power and love to bake so I have always struggled to loose weight. Hoping with your support I will be able to shed some pounds and regain my lacking self confidence.

    Firstly Welcome :-)

    Will power can be our own obstacle at times but it can equally be the one thing that changes our lives forever. I have found using my imagination and picturing myself in a smaller outfit a massive help on those days when you just 'can't be bothered' to think about what you're actually eating or drinking.

    I find this site incredibly helpful and have spoken to some really great people who have provided with support, inspiration and a good old chit chat from time to time. I've got most of my department at work using Myfitnesspal and everyone of them is pleased with the results.

    Give it a fair try and take advantages of the tools/community links this site provides.

    Happy for you to add me as a friend on here if you need some ideas.

    Good luck :-)
