    This will work!!! This will be the time you do it.

    I've started a million diets. Almost every Monday of my adult life, I started a new diet, and by the weekend I would quit.

    This changed with My Fitness Pal. You just do it. You just enter your calories, and fit some exercise in, and take it one day at a time. And it works. No second guessing. No wondering. No need to obsess over the scales.

    I'm on week 13, and almost down 20 lbs (give or take!).

    Plan your meals, move your body, and you will meet with success and you will feel AMAZING!!!!

    Congratulations on making this big step to a healthier and slimmer you!!!

    Welcome to MFP. It's a great site with great members.

    Remember one day at a time is how you do it - tomorrow isn't here yet, yesterday is history so just think about today.

    I have been using MFP since 7/25 and I've lost 17 pounds and 13.25 inches.

    If ****I**** can do this, you can do it! Good luck!

    Welcome,
    This is not a diet it is a true lifestyle change so this will work. If you work the program it will also work for you. God Bless, Brenda :happy:

    That is just what I was going to say. Healthy Lifestyle change. This isn't something you can do until you meet your goal. THis is a way of life you have to take on for the REST of your life.
