NEW HERE

Hello, I am new to the Fitness Pal. I have come over from Spark People and before that Weight Watchers. I quit doing WW because I couldn't afford the monthly fee and work too hard with two kids for their meetings. I liked Spark People, but kept seeing advertisements from MFP. I am hoping to find some online support. I have been on calorie restrictions since Jan 9 of this year. So far I've lost around 25 lbs, but have been falling off of the wagon the last couple weeks. Yes my food addiction is coming back with a vengeance. I wish I could hate the taste of food. :O( I can do this!! I know I can!!

    Hi ive also tried WW and i couldnt get into it. Tried the old points version and the new pro-points version. 25lbs is an excellent loss. Im looking to lose 30 lbs. I joined MFP 4 days ago. I can understand food addiction and wanting to hate the taste of food as i have bulimia.. yes you can do it!
    Feel free to add me :)

    I tried Spark People before trying this, but I love it here a lot more! There's a bigger sense of community here. Been here for 3 days and I LOVE it!
