in Introduce Yourself
Mornin' from Texas!

What a wonderful application this is for finding out how bad you have been doing with eating and nutrition and exercise.

While looking around a week ago.....I came across this on the internet. I love it! I thought I would just try entering what I ate that day. Now, 7 days later.....minus 4 pounds,

Really excited about finding the site and will welcome motivation and success stories from others.

Have a wonderful day!

    When you have to absolutely own every bite and drinks.....it made a huge difference.....I can see how badly I haven't been paying attention....it's time to do something for me!

    I found the same thing. When I was accountable to an outside source (MFP) I was all of a sudden more aware of what I was eating. It does help you avoid mindless eating.

    Well done! It's great for keeping you accountable and making you aware. And for the support and inspiration from others. Have a look at the posts under success stories in the forum. You can lose a big amount at first, be prepared afterwards for a slow, steady loss of 1-2 a week, that's still good progress and healthy. Good luck!

    Well Done! Same here ... I am now accountable to what I eat! I left my diary open for friends to see which i think has made me even more accountable to what i am eating. I am the only one who can controll how much i loose. Great work keep going!!

    Great job!! Food Journaling has been the key for me as well. It makes you accountable to what you put in your body! I let myself have "treats" but in moderation and I can see where better food and drink choices outweigh the momentary satisfaction I get from gorging on crap food.

    Keep it up girl!

    So sorry....didn't see your post to me until just now. Not too used to the site yet. Thanks for posting.

    Still doing good. I think it's the discipline of having to write it down that is helping. Hope you are still doing well also. Let me know :smile:
