Hi, I'm new, and learning my way around the computer as well as my new lifestyle. I have changed my eating way back in April when I was diagnosed with diabeties, but even with what I feel massive changes am losing weight too slowly. So a friend put me on to this site which I have found useful. I just really hope that tomorrow at my weigh in at my doctors I will finally see results for my efforts. I also started with light exercise and have now pumped it up a bit. I am motivated and even if i don't see results I have never given up. I just keep on trying.

    Welcome. I am starting my 5th month on MFP and I love it. 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.

    Keep up the great work!! I know how hard it is.Knowing that you are doing everything that you should be and the weight is not coming off as fast as you like BUT its the inches that are!! Good luck on your weigh in and remember to be positive whatever the scale says. It is hard but I know that you can do this!!

    Don't give up & just keep trying. sometimes you'll lose inches more then weight and vice-versa. I wish you the best of luck.
