    Hi Robinia, and welcome to THE best site on the web!
    I hear you with the trying Weight Watchers and other things too! Gosh knows I've had MY share of trying "everything else", including hypnosis, TWICE! :laugh: NOTHING worked though compared to MFP! :love:
    Between the easy to use food counter (which by the way is SUCH an eye opener!) and all the wonderfully supportive members, you WILL be able to lose the weight that you want to, AND, it'll "almost" be easy doing it!
    I recommend logging ALL your foods BEFORE you have them, rather than later, as it tends to lead to better food choices. (not to mention you'll know if you've got enough numbers left to have a night time snack, like I ALWAYS try to do!) Some people also like to weigh and measure some things, such as meats, rather than just estimating and possibly being WAY off!
    Also, drink lots of water, that seems to help alot too. :drinker:

    Hi Bren !

    thanks so much for your encouragement and advise. I did sign up and kinda flaked out, blamed it on being a little confused. But back and ready to dig in!
    How is your journey going?

    Hello,
    Thanks for your welcome...I love your quote "I can do all through God who strengthens me" Amen!
    I just forget to ask him sometimes.....you know trying to do it all on your own.
    How is your journey going these days.
    And thanks to all for your welcomes....I am starting today.

    Day after Thanksgiving and I so need to be here. Hoping and praying to God that I can stick to this through the rest of the holidays before I gain even more weight! My husband says this is a bad time to start back up here. Maybe, but I want to try to set some limits before I over indulge.:drinker:
