edited February 3 in Introduce Yourself
Hello, I thought I would introduce myself. My name is Carly and I have a good 80 pounds to lose. I chose MFP because well, number one, it's free. I have tried many other diet plans such as Atkins and Nutrsystem and many others. I really just need to learn to eat well, and not binge. I know any diet will work if you stick with it.

    Hi Carly...I'm Lynn. Welcome to MFP. It is a great site and works well if you are consistent and loyal to the plan. No matter how hard I try, some days are just more difficult than others. For me, it is a total mind-game and I am like a yo-yo. Some days I win and some days I lose! Hoping this helps you along your journey. Feel free to add me as a friend, and I will support you along the way.

    Good Luck! I LOVE to travel too! Returned this past May from a 10-day Caribbean cruise. It was amazing. Getting ready to book a week in Key West in November. Feel free to add me as your friend. I will be happy to support you along the way!

    I've been a part of MFP for more than a year, and it's been a wonderful guide to help me keep track of everything I'm eating without having to write it down anywhere. I've lost over 50 pounds in a year and have kept it off for the past eight months so far. Add me for support and motivation anytime. :flowerforyou:
