Greetings from B'More ...

I am so thrilled to have found this website. I actually tested 4 sites yesterday and found this one to be the best. It appears to have the best lists of foods with their calorie count. This was the only one who had my McCann's Quick Cooking Instant Oatmeal that I get from Trader Joe's.

I plan to start tomorrow -- I want to count my calories.

I was a past Weight Watchers member and lost 80 pounds, but I have gained back 40.

I want to lose 50 pounds!

Take care all,
Welcome to all other newbies too.

    Welcome! I love this site too. It's rare these days that I actually have to create a new food...someone else has already beat me to it. And the interface is clean and simple. Can't beat the price either. Thanks to Mike for giving us this gift.

    Awe, I'm grinning from ear to ear. Thanks to all for the big welcome.

    Yes, I need to get a better profile picture. :blushing:

    I'll post a new picture after the first 10# loss. :love:

    I just changed my profile picture. It's the only one I could find -- but it does have my 11 YO son in background. :noway:
