Hello!

Just thought I'd say hello...HELLO!

I joined up yesterday after defecting from Weightwatchers. The rubbishness of their Android app and general website cruddiness drove me away and over to MFP, which I cannot believe is free! I'm hoping all will go well with the switch from points to calorie counting but so far it's been easy. I'm aiming to shift my final stone of baby weight then lose the infernal extra stone I've been carrying around for ten years too long.

Good luck everyone!

    Good luck! I used to do WW to a long time ago and was very successful with ut, but now it is just not really in my budget and I would rather lose the weight for free if I can! Feel free to add me if you would like some more friends:smile:

    Welcome aboard. Remember it's not a diet, it's a lifestyle. Drink water, eat clean, and get moving. It works.

    hi, i did the same a couple of weeks ago, w.w. points and calories work out more or less the same, the only thing i found hard was being used to 'free' foods and now having to count every calorie for fruit, salad etc, but you soon get used to it, lost 3lb first week :)
    add me if you need friends/support

    Welcome...I tried WW once, I lost zero and I was starving all the time. I don't think I ever understood it.
