Hello Everyone, I am new, I entered in my breakfast and lunch and cringed at what I had ate!!

wow writing it dow is a wake up call, well I have 150 to lose, it is this or weight lose surgery, and I am a wimp...so I told my doctor I would make some changes.

I was reading womans world and read about Ali from biggest loser, she tracked her calories, so I found this sight.

I am going to take it one day at a time and promise to give myself enough time each day to log my progress towards a healthy life.

cheers everyone

    Hi, and welcome! This site really IS fantastic, you're going to LOVE it!
    Yup, the counter log IS quite the eye opener, isn't it?!!! I might suggest that you enter your foods BEFORE you eat them, rather than after, since seeing the totals might get you making better choices.

    Hi! I think losing it slowly on this site as opposed to quickly with gastric bypass is that you won't have that pesky skin issue. I think this is better in the long run...at least that's what I've heard! Welcome!

    Welcome to the newbies :tongue:
    Sometimes just to be aware what you eat, can make a big change.
    Good luck and have fun
