Hi all,
I was told to come and check this site by a good friend.
I joined it on Thursday and been doing my daily reports in food.
I'm dead shocked in what I eat ,since I see it in front of me.
I started at the gym yesterday as I need to loose weight after I have piled
the pounds on after I had a stroke a couple of years ago...:smile:

    I love it here and this is the best thing I have found. I lost some weight before starting here. Still have ten pounds to go but it makes us accountable. Add me if you like.

    I love this site too! Good luck getting started. It's a real eye opener logging your food huh? I can't believe how out of control my portion sizes were!!

    Add me if you'd like. I'm new here too.

    Welcome to MFP - I've been here for a over a year and love it.

    It can be quite an eye opener seeing how many calories you eat.

    Good luck to all of you just joining the site. I started using it about 18 months ago and lost 35 pounds. I haven't been on it for a while, but I'm back on because I need it for tracking the food I eat- trying to bulk up a little. Feel free to add me if you need any encouragement.

    It's so true... logging the food you eat is extremely eye opening! Welcome to MFP :) Ive checked out other calorie counting sites and I think this one is the best. Feel free to add me too and good luck!
