    Hi

    I'm fairly new here myself (just under two weeks) but this is a great way to monitor and track. Plus everyone is really helpful and supportive.

    I've joined up with some lovely friendly ladies who are all trying to lose a pound a week for a year (although ideally I'd like to lose more because I need to;-D)

    Oprah once said "if there was a magic pill that would fix my problem with weight....trust me I would buy it no matter how xpensive it was. But there isnt so we gotta work hard for it"
    for the longest time i felt like it wasnt fair that i had to work @ it. watched the foods I ate, workout, all those things that dont seem much fun, but i feel that me thinking like that got me to this point.
    Im new to this n im ready to make a change just like every1 here, lets keep ourself motivated!!!!!!!

    Welcome! You will love using this site. It's helped me lose 12 pounds since I joined late January. Stick to your calorie goal, drink lots of water, eat a healthy and well balanced diet, and exercise! You'll get the results you're looking for using MFP!
