I just found this site yesterday after reading about it on another forum I belong to. It's just what I was looking for!

I could stand to lose 100 lbs. but I'm going for shorter term goals for now. My first goal is 25 lbs. by the end of 2009. I am type 2 diabetic and losing just 10 lbs. so far has started to improve my blood glucose readings. I'm exercising about 40 minutes 5-6 days a week (walking or biking) and have just started keeping a food diary. This site is a great way to do that.

Hello and Welcome :flowerforyou: :bigsmile:
MFP is the greatest diet aid tool I have ever found. :smooched: If I had to write all this stuff down....well..you know- I haven't got the time, much less remember. :noway: Keep yourself accountable. Look up calories in foods your not sure about. Processed sugars and HFCS high fructose syrup are bad! :explode: Stay away from fast foods unless you know how many calories and what kind are in them. This is really about changing your life and way you eat forever. Grabbing food for comfort or boredom is no longer an option! :noway: You must be aware of what, when and where you are eating. :bigsmile: :huh: :bigsmile:
Been there and done it for 25 years of gaining weight! :frown:
So get started! Get psyhced! Get pumped! Grab your water bottles for plenty of filling/flushing H2O!
We can do it!! :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :flowerforyou: :smooched:
