New to this and love it already!

Just joined this today. I am recently retire, married, mother of two and grandma of 1 1/2 grandchildren, so far. Several years ago, I managed with lots of work to lose 70 lbs., but sadly have gained about half of that back. This has to stop! I'm so glad that my son told me about this site! It's terrific! Looking forward instead of back!

Welcome to MFP :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
This is a great site. Take the time to learn about all the great features and use them.
You will succeed if you work hard and don’t lose sight of your goal.
This site changed my life and it can change yours

Take it one day at a time
Stay open minded to new ideas
Take baby steps
Drink lots of water :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

Think of this as a new way of life, not just a temporary diet.

It always helps me to log my food first before I eat so there are no surprises. :laugh: :laugh:

Find a group to be part of and check in with them every day. The best way to find a group is to go to the message boards and read a lot of the threads until you find a group that has what you want, then reply and say you want to join and then participate regularly with them and get to know them. My groups are 50+ women and senior golden sneakers. :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
