My name is Laura and I am new to MFP; a co-worker uses it and turned me on to it! I AM SO EXCITED THAT SHE DID! I love logging what I eat, the database of foods seems almost endless. It's so so so very simple! I even log my Wii fitness exercises and they are ALSO in the database!! I can box, bowl, Wii step and take a little walk on my treadmill and I am done for the day! It seems so effortless! I got on my Wii board today and I have lost 4 pounds!!! OMG I cannot believe it! It also helps me make better choices in my foods. I feel it holds me accountable. Even if I want that piece of cake I will have it, I will log it and it tells me what I have left for the day. It almost makes it so you don't want that piece of cake so you can save your calories for lots of other goodies! I haven't had a Red Bull for energy since i have started, it's all natural energy from now on!

    Welcome! I just joined a couple of days ago. I discovered the app on my Android phone and fell in love with it! I have told two co-workers about it who have now joined. I agree, logging and viewing your food definitely makes you stop and think about what you are eating. Good luck and congrats on the lost poundage!
