    That's why this site is so great. You can see exactly what you're putting into your body. It's there in black and white. Now you have that knowledge and you'll be able to change it. Good Luck!

    It took me the first number of months on this site to find my "groove" and not only eat enough throughout the day but the right things so I was getting in all of the correct amount of nutrients as well.
    I've been working on this for 11 months and have really only figured it out for about 5 months now but have lost 40 pounds in that 5 months, and I give the credit to MFP for being such a great coach.

    my problem isn't going over my calorie goal. quite the opposite actually. my hubby looks at my report at the end of each day and then jumps my butt because I don't get a minimum of 1200 calories. it seems like I am eating a LOT and do not feel hungry very often either. going over and being short on calories can be equally bad. so try not to go to the extreme opposite of what you are doing now. now that you got it all figured out you will do great.

    exactly action jackson. a lot of people don't realize that if you don't eat enough calories in the day your body will go into starvation mode and hold on to the fat. glad you got it figured out now.
