Hello everyone! I first found MFP 2 years ago, and liked it....but, sadly, I gave up! I did not have any friends, or any type of support group! A few days ago, I decided to give this thing a go once more! This time I will not give up, but I need some help. I need some folks to make me your friend and help me to keep this mentality! Encourage me and I'll encourage you! Either way, I will do this!

    Best of luck! :)

    What I would say, or at least something I've certainly learnt from my four months here, is to log everything- bad or good. If it's been an awful day then log it anyway, even if you log it the next day, as one day of none logging leads to two, to three and before you know it you've fallen off track again. Having a bad day is not as bad as people think: I personally believe everyone needs a day off every once in a while!

    Thanks. Yesterday was a little off because I went on a couple's outing to PF Changs! I tried to research before we ever got there, but I was riding my husband's nerves really bad with all the calorie obsession, so I decided to eat what I wanted, only in moderation. Since my morning went well and I didn't give in to the pizza ordered at work for lunch, i only went over my goal by about 300. I can't complain. I'll try to slice it off here and there over the week!

    Decide.
    Commit.
    Succeed!

    Log it all, good and bad. The only one you fail is yourself if you don't
