in Introduce Yourself
I am really thrilled I found out about this forum. It is really good. I found it just in time.

My name is Marianne .. I am 92Kg, 170cm tall. I am getting married in 6 months. Have been dieting for years .. almost all my life.
without great success apparently.

My husband to be is slim, doesnt care about food that much .. I am on the contrary one of those people who loves food and loves to try things out.
I try to eat healthy as much as I can ... but I usually skips a day or two a week where I eat only what I feel like eating and ending up with ice cream, or cheese or just some hot bakery. .. or couple of beers or a bottle of wine.

Just thought to introduce myself .. and check things around

    Welcome to MFP once you start logging what you are eating everyday (be honest) you will see just how many calories you are eating. I really had no idea how many calories I was eating before now I actually make a concious effort to make healthier choices.

    Feel free to add me as well!

    MFP is full of support and encouragement. i love everyone on this site. coming onto MFP makes losing weight and exercising more fun and exciting. i love seeing what people have ate during the day and i sometimes get idea's from their diets.

    i have lost 12 pounds, and it may sound little but to me, it's a huge step and a huge achievement.

    i believe anyone can be anything they want to be if they put their minds to it.

    have fun with your meals and try out new activities and before you know it, you have lost a couple of inches (or pounds) without even realising it :)

    good luck :)

    Good luck on your weight loss for your wedding! I've just joined today too so hi everyone! I'm trying to loose my last 6 kilos in time for my sons wedding in six weeks but I am pretty sure I can't do that but any loss is good. I've already lost 8 with Weight Watchers.
