Today, it has been 90 days since a friend put me onto this app. I had put on a few pounds and wanted to lose them. I set the app to lose one pound a week. 90 days later I have met my original goal. If you are honest with your logging, and meet the calorie intake, you will lose the weight. I will probably try to lose about 5 pounds more, and then maintain.
This a wonderful tool, and I just want to encourage everyone to stick with it.

    Congrats to you!!

    And I agree -- MFP is by far probably THE best site for tracking food, exercise, etc.

    Thanks for all the support. I have lost 10 pounds and would like to lose 5 more. I exercise regularly, but my love for Pizza, etc. has a way of packing on the weight.
