My First Day on MFP!

Hi Folks,

Thanks to my doctor, I have signed on to MFP - and already I love it. I am trying to lose weight so that I feel better, snore less, and have lots more energy. I was thrilled to see that I had stayed within my goal - all day - even though I didn't start recording my info until this evening. I am looking forward to encouragement from you and to encouraging you.

Tressa:happy:

    Welcome and congrats on your first day on MFP!! I have been on this site a little over 2 years but have actively been logging now for 161 days and have lost 23 pounds.. I too have health issues and was told by my dr that something needed to be done.. So if at anytime you need someone to talk to or anything feel free to message me :)

    Hi, I'm new here too. It's been very eye opening as far as how many calories to eat, salt intake, and sugars! Feel free to add me if you want some support.
  • Welcome! Even if you eat stuff that's not so great, log it anyway! Sometime the truth hurts when you see it in fine print. ;-) Most of the people here are here for a reason and will give you useful advice, you just have to reach out for it. Good Luck!

    Hi it's my first day too. Losing weight is so much harder than
    I thought it would be! The weight had crept up over the years and
    I find it difficult to keep motivated. I am hoping support on mfp
    Is the solution!
