Options
:bigsmile: todays my 3rd day..... a co-worker told me about this 'myfitnesspal' thing and i said'''' yeah yeah yeah, ive already been on every diet on earth, oh, theres a new one???: well, with it online and on my iphone, its almost like a game, i'm finding it actually fun!! of course, in the first 3 days i lost 7 lbs, so of course i'm excited!! I don't CARE if its water, its still gone!!! lol
I hope i can stick it out, i haven't had a chance to really get into it a lot, but i'm just starting to read to posts, so i'm sure i'll get a lot of good suggestions, recipes and tricks.............. wish me luck. I need to lose about 50 lbs, i'm 60 years old, work on my feet 10 hours a day and it would sure be nice to not have all this extra to carry around!!!!!! lol.....

    Welcome. 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.
