Okay so I'm just starting to be dedicated and use MFP calorie counter. I want to know how long it took everyone at their starting weight to first see results.

    It's different for everyone. I started to see results right away and had a big drop my first week. Some people will go two or three weeks before they see movement on the scale.

    If by results you mean the scale going down I'd say it took me about 7 weeks.

    My first full week on My Fitness Pal, I lost about 5 pounds, which had never happened so fast in my life. It's slowed down a lot since then - I now average about 6 pounds a month.
