That's fantastic Megan! Congratulations! :flowerforyou: Keep up the great job you're doing.
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!
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:
Don't go making the mistake that if you have LOTS of numbers left at the end of the day that you'll lose even faster, because that DOESN'T happen. Feel free to read any info about the site in the "help" section at the top of the home page. And also, under "all topics", then "general", and check out the first few threads. They'll really help you understand how MFP works.
Before coming here, I had tried just about EVERYTHING out there, including hypnosis, TWICE, and nothing really worked until MFP!
Also, drink LOTS of water, it REALLY DOES help! :drinker:

You have to log it in. Did you click on exercise, and then "add exercise"? Then you'll need to type in what you did, hit the search, and see if what you did, such as walking, jogging, swimming, etc. shows up. And when you see your right exercise, click on it and it should show up in your exercise section.
If I'm being too unclear for you, just go to the help section at the top. They have tons of answers to pretty much any question you might have.

I'm talking about where it says cardiovascular, not the strength training. I think that's something totally different and I've never done that. Maybe the help section would explain THAT to you if that's what you're trying to do. I THINK I remember that people have to add all their own info there, instead of getting choices to pick from when you go to cardio.
There's also a website if you don't find the exercise you've done. It's: http://www.caloriesperhour.com/index_burn.php
