Hi! I'm Mandiy. I just started my official weight loss journey yesterday and a friend told me about this site. I'm so glad she did! I love the tools so far and I'm looking forward to meeting a support group to encourage me along the way. I've tried secretly to lose weight for over 2 years now and I just never stick to it. I'm tired of feeling that way though so I'm ready to make a change. I'm excited that I still have as much motivation today as I did yesterday. Usually I lose it by the second day. Not this time! :)

    Welcome aboard! We are all here to help one another. Here's to day one.
  • Hi! Good for you that you've decided to make a change. I've only been doing this ten days or so, and all I can say is, already i've started to feel a difference. Good luck :)

    Welcome!:smile: You'll love this site. I'm like you and before now had never stuck to a diet but MFP makes it a really enjoyable and rewarding experience! I've been on this site for nearly 6weeks now which is the longest I've stuck to any diet. As of this morning's weigh-in I've lost 7lbs! :noway: Half a stone! Seems unimaginable because I really have been enjoying myself! You'll really begin to change your perspective on food and exercise. Feel free to add me if you like :flowerforyou:

  • Jrich, that made me laugh. Although I think you should check your scale in that case haha. (Though I need a new one since I've lost 10 since yesterday lol)

    Krinio, that's awesome that you've stuck to it and are seeing results!! It looks like you are going to make your first mini goal!
