in Introduce Yourself
So, I have had my MFP for awhile now, but have used it on and off. I have been on Weight Watchers for 3 months now, and I started out at 230. I lost 14 pounds, and currently am at 216. I decided (at least until I graduate college in May) I will no longer do Weight Watchers and test out this calorie counting thing. Anyone have any good tips or tricks? Motivation? It would be highly appreciated! :)

    The daily logging of calories that you eat and burn is pretty much it. The hard part is burning more calories then you eat. In the beginning I always stayed under my calorie goal and never eat back the calories earned from a workout. That worked for me, I lose 29lbs. I'm currently in maint. mode. You will pick up more tips and hints along the way that will work for you. I mix my workouts with cardio (love) and strength (need) training for a good fat burning combo.
    Feel free to add me as a MFP buddy. I wish you much success.
