    Welcome! I actually just joined recently too. Isn't it a great site? Yeah the whole pad of paper thing really makes it tough...I love the calorie counter especially since there is no math needed!:wink: Even after just a few days I feel like this is the right place to be! Good luck on your weight loss journey:flowerforyou:

    Welcome. I'm new myself and am totally THRILLED with this awesome website. I really like that so many people are in the same boat as me and I have some support. Good luck. I just read a really good posting on the fitness blog about couch to 5K. It sounds pretty cool! Have a great day and see you around.

    Hi Evie! I agree that the site is fabulous. I am teaching an advanced health assessment course for nurses and part of the requirements are resources for patients for health. I usually only stick to professional nursing and medical sites (Like AMA, AAFP, AAP, etc...), but this fall I am going to add this website. Good luck to you! I think with this site we can all stay on track better.

    Welcome aboard! I've been here for awhile and it is a great site! It works when you stick to it. I have slacked off but I am trying to get back into it. Feel free to ask any questions. Someone on here will probably have an answer for you. Eat ALL your calories, including the ones you burn with exercise and drink lots and lots of water! Were glad you are here!
