Hello, my name is Chelsea! I'm 18 and new to this site.. I could really use some help with motivation and maybe a few helpful tips with losing weight! I would love to have someone to go through this with it would make it easier to do! (Add me !)

    here are a few tips that I found to work for me:
    1. Make MFP your home page
    2. Log in EVERYDAY, read the message boards... post.. Keep your mind actively thinking about it.
    3. Don't try to change too much at once, Implement 1 change every week or so. Little tweeks over time seem to work best or at least better than butt load of change all at once
    4. Always be honest. We al fall on our way to the top, be honest, no one is judging you here... we all support eachother
    5. Keep trying new things until you find what works for you (It took me a while to find my plan and it works great for me but I wouldn't push it on anyone else)
    6. Its easier to lift weights than the burdens of carrying weight.
    7. take it one day at a time.
    8. Have a cheat day or meal, where you eat what you want
    9. Try to talk to yourself as if you are talking to your child or loved one. Often times the thing we need most is to be a better friend to ourselves.
    10. Smile. :)
    I don't wish people good luck, I never had it and don't need it! Luck doesn't get you through this... hard work does!;)

    I'll add you :) Do you have diet shakes? They really do help! I use USN Diet Fuel as it's really cheap and lasts me two weeks. It's 7 days supply but 2 scoops in each shake is like drinking yoghurt! Also, i started taking these maxitone sculptress pills a couple of days ago. Only last a week so i have my fingers crossed SOME weight shifts! x
