    Hello from another Newbie. I joined this site for the convenient way to count calories going into my mouth and burned by exercise. I have never kept a food diary before, so MyFitnessPal will keep me disciplined.

    Welcome to the site, I am kind of new to this site myself, and I have found a lot of good information here as well as when you visit the message boards.

    Stay with whatever diet plan you want to try and if you need advise, don't hesitate send out a "HELP" message on the message board, I check the board everyday since I joined to see what information I can get.

    I have been on my diet for over a year now and what keeps me going is the desire to watch my kids grow up to become adults and growing old with my wife.

    So when you feel like giving just think of the things you can do without that weight you are carrying around......

    Good luck.....

    Hi all! I'm fairly new too. I added this as an app on my iphone back in May, but just really started using it daily a few weeks ago. I'm looking forward to the online version. I need all the support I can get! Feel free to add me as a friend. We can encourage and support each other.
