New to myfitnesspal

Hi there everyone, I am new to myfitnesspal today is my first day. Thought I would give this a try as I have been struggling with my weight for as long as I can remember. I am hoping that this site and app will help me make a lifestyle change and help me with some accountabilty. Wish me luck

    You don't need luck. You will get out what you put in. Embrace it:)

    You can do it! Just log every bite, even if you go over, it helps to visualize where and when you are making bad or good choices, so you can fix it! Welcome!

    You can do this! Just keep in mind that today has to be the day! Set a goal on your calendar and envision being there. Think about how disappointing it would be to not get there because you gave up! You got this!
  • Today is my first day also and so far I am very impressed not only by hoe easy everything is to set up but more so by all the support the community provides.

    I am really excited to start this journey here.

    Feel free to add me if you'd like.

    theres no luck involved just motivation and hard work and youll see results!
  • Thanks, I have tried logging before but eventually I get tired and lazy about it. I think being on this forum and talking with others will keep me on track and motivated
  • I am also impressed with all the support on this forum. Thanks everyone for your encouragement

    Welcome. I started a couple weeks ago and if you have access to the app and the website, you'll find it helps with logging. I log at the restaurant when I'm ordering and log as I'm cooking dinner. It's a great site and you'll do terrific with it. It's been so impressive, my husband has started using it too.
  • Hi, you can add me too, I will do what I can to motivate you and I will tell it like it is and hope you will do the same for me.
