    I began Jan 6 this year after joining a yr prior and not sticking with it. Something finally clicked and I've been here every day since 1-6! I am 15 pounds down and still have over 100 to go. Logging my food faithfully keeps me in check, was a big eye opener. I got so motivated by adding my exercise and the 15 lbs that I just joined a gym.

    Feel free to add me.

    Welcome to MFP! This is the best site ever!!! I used to track my calorie intake and expenditures manually on an Excel spreadsheet - this is much more efficient. I get a lot of motivation by tracking my calories and exercise on the website, and it's much easier than my old way of doing things And it is a such an emotional boost when you see your daily progress detailed on the News Feed. I'd just like to say that there will probably be lots of ups and downs, but keep plugging away and you will reach your goal. This is a great site for research and you can learn a lot from the posts. It's also good to see that others are struggling with weight loss too.

    I'm new too! I've had the app for a long time but I have never been on here! This is great and checking in my weight each day keeps me motivated. I am trying to lose at least 25 lbs right now. I can't lose much more due to my wedding dress only being able to be taken in 2 sizes. But in the long run I'd like to lose the 50-60 lbs I gained when I quit smoking. We can do it!!!
