In need of friends! (:

Hi and welcome you'll like it here you can add me as a friend I have 3xs as much as you to lose so i'm not leaving anytime soon

Hi! I joined last week and I lost one pound my first week. Keeping track of what you eat and how much exercise you get really helps! Good luck! You can add me as your friend if you like..

I set that 20 pounds by Christmas goal for myself in early September. So far I have lost 6 pounds! Good luck!

Just make sure you keep track of EVERYTHING you eat. That was my biggest problem. Once I got on MFP and started logging my food, I really started paying attention to what I was eating. I have made a big improvement in my eating habits in only one week..

Hi

Hope you are getting ready to concur the world on this site. I will tell you with some strong determination and the will to succeed you will go far. I have done well by logging all my food. It helps to do it before you eat it (you will be surprise how many calories are in things) I check,check and recheck the calorie content because they are not always accurate on the site. I am not a big exercise person (very hard to fit it in most days) . I work out abit with my WII (too much fun) I started by calorie level at 1200 but after a few weeks I discovered that it was far to low so I brought it up to 1430 and I lose 1 pound a week almost like clockwork. I hit the wall a couple times and did not lose for the week then the following week it got its MoJo back and off it came. I can tell you that I do budget for a treat ( I love Yoplait delights chocolate raspberry) There is a really good web site hungry girl.com tons of recipes for some yummy food (one of my favs is chicken cordon blu ) I really began to have more energy at about 20 pounds off. It is funny because the body changes slowly but its cool to discover all the new things that you have (or to be more exact the things you don’t have) like one less roll on your tummy or hey I forgot I have dimples in my cheeks :bigsmile: Again you can do it just hang in there an be patient.

I have been on MFP for 3 months, starting my 4th. It's the best decision I have made in many years. I have lost weight with diets many times before, but it was never a lifestyle change. This time is different; it's a lifestyle change, not a diet. Good luck on your weight loss journey. Please feel free to add me as a friend; we can help motivate each other.
