    Welcome this is a great way to get started. I found this site recently and I'm now addicted. It has taught me so much. But much greater are the wonderful others who are members on mfp. They have helped support me, laugh with me, and motivate me. Looking forward to doing the same for you!:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Hello there! I started about a week ago & I find it very usefull, we never know how much we're eating until we keep track, it's encouraging to see the results, I got married in October so I understand about the dress shopping, but the best part is knowing that you are doing something good for your body & it feels great!:happy:

    Wow, sooooooo many new people! Course, why not? This IS the best site on the web!
    You're all going to LOVE this site! It REALLY, REALLY works!!!
    Between the great daily food counter, which by the way is SUCH an eye opener, and all the wonderfully supportive people, the weight WILL come off. AND, it'll ALMOST be easy, as well as fun, too!

    Welcome and remember at 2 lbs a week it adds up to 52 lbs in 26 weeks or 6 months or 104 lbs in 1 year I have been here for 6 months, it's wonderful :smile:

    I love to give tips and they are:
    1) log it BEFORE you eat it, this can help you make wise choices :tongue:
    2) weigh and/or measure everything, my eye was much larger than actual amounts :noway:

    Wishing you the best :drinker:

    I've been on this program for a couple of months now and I've lost a lot of weight. You can do it with a little postive thinking and some changes to diet and exercise you'll feel great. It worked for me :smile: :flowerforyou: I hope that you have great sucess!

    Welcome! I started about 6 wks ago and have lost 12 lbs. When I started my friend said it was a waste of time to log all your food, she knows what to eat and how much. Wellllllllll today she asked me for the web site info because she is UP 20lbs! (she quite smoking-i am so proud of her!!))

    Point is...this site is fan tas tic. Something about being accountable to myself, and oh-having to write down that chicken wing. NOT worth it.

    Good Luck! Your gunna be smokin hot in your wedding dress.
