Hi Guys,

I thought I would give this a go and try and move a bit of weight. I am a yoyo dieter. Only seem to last about 3 weeks at most then go back to my usual bad eating habits. Hoping to find some support and motivation and hopefully make some new MFP friends :)

    Welcome, using the tools here (especially the diary & exercise log) have helped me stay on track MUCH longer than I ever have in the past - so I've had much more success than I ever have before. The forums are great, they are full of information & there are plenty of people willing to help out if you have any questions.....

    You are welcome to add me! My diary is open. I have always been a yo yo dieter too, but now I have learned NOT to diet and just eat what I love at a deficit! Good luck

    Hi!! Feel free to add me too - I am doing the same thing you are and thought maybe this would help. I usually get frustrated and go back to my old habits too. I am tired of feeling gross and ready for a change! We can do it together!! :-)

    Instead of adding just a bunch of randoms to your friend's list, I suggest you read through a lot of the forums and pick and choose, not only those going through the same situation as you, but some who have been where you are and have gotten to where you want to be. Those who are with you will offer support and encouragement, those who have "been there" and overcame can offer guidance.

    Also, here are some very informational threads that all Newbies should read:
