in Getting Started
Hi my name is Jodi and I am new to this site but not to trying to lose weight, in the past I have always tried to do it on my own only to fail miserably. I am a 44 year old female with 160 pounds to lose, just typing that gave me anxiety, so if you would like to be friends please message me. Thank you for your time and good luck in your weight loss journey...

    I am new alsoand in the same boat. Ihave lost 12 since may12. My dr. sugested diet and I found the mfp app. The app is great. It makes keeping track much easier. I like that it show your daily nutrition values for the day-helps me to make better choices. I have lost 50-75lbs, 4 times, diff methods, over the past 25 years. This is the most doable. I found this applooking for something else. I am glad I did. This is my first post. Scary!

    Great first step Jodi. Accountability is the key. If you report everything you eat and every time you exercise, even when you have a bad day (or week), you will start to change your behaviors and see results in no time. Be consistent with your reporting and it will happen.
