Sorry guys, posted this in success stories by mistake, forgive me im new here!

Hi all, im a 38 yr old male from the uk, been a yo- yo dieter for years now, and now enough is enough, im detrermined to do it this time, i have only been logged in for one week and already im 6lbs lighter, logging everything down has really done me a favour, and made me realise how sloppy i have been, please feel free to add me as a friend, so i can take inspiration and motivation from you on my journey. Cheers, Andy.

    Hi and welcome!

    Logging everything was an eye-opener for me too.

    Keep it up, MFP is a great tool for weight loss
  • I think I lost around 6 pounds my first week. Some people say that it is only possible for someone to lose 1 pound a week, and I think that is completely inaccurate. Unless, they were referring to the weight you lose after your first 10 pounds. I read somewhere that your first 10 pounds is only water weight, which is the easiest to lose, and everything after that is fat. But that is information that I read online, which might not be accurate.

    You can do it!
