in Introduce Yourself
Hey everyone! My cousin convinced me to try this out because it was working so well for her! I am very excited to get things rolling and get on track to finally make my goals and lose the weight I have been trying to lose for so long! I just figured out my goal weight and in just 70 pounds (yikes, that is intimidating) I will have reached it! I would appreciate any support I could get and I will definitely be giving support back. I think this is a wonderful thing to try and I am inspired by each and every one of you! Thanks for listening! :)

    WELCOME to MFP! I have been with it for 5 weeks and have already lost 12lbs! I am addicted to this site LOL I log on all the time to put my food/exercise in and to look at recipes people post and encouraging words people offer. It's Great! I wish you the best of luck, I have a long ways to go before i reach my goal weight as well, but remember this isn't a diet, this is a lifestyle change. Add me as a friend!

    good luck big numbers do seem intimidating try breaking it down into smaller amounts to focus on until you reach your goal.

    Good luck to you and your goal, My three daughters and I started this last Friday, and we are having such success keeping up with our daily meal calorie goals.

    If you commit yourself to keeping track of all your calories, I think you will reach that 70lb goal soon enough. I do not officially weigh in until tomorrow, but I am already down 5 lbs this week alone, and I have a weightloss goal of about 85lbs. Way exciting.

    Have fun!!!!!

    Hi! I'm new too... I've actually been on a couple other sites like this, but this one has a handy app for the ipod, so I thought I'd be able to keep track a little better. One thing is for sure, being on a site like this and being accountable for everything you put in your mouth as well as feeling obligated to log some exercise, really does help the weight come off. Good luck!!!!!! :o)
