I'm so very inspired by all of you, particularly those who share their before and after pictures. You have no idea how they have kept me going! I started 2 weeks ago and miraculously I have already lost 9 pounds! I haven't noticed a difference in my reflection nor in the fit of my clothes but I know those 9 pounds are gone and that has kept me going. That, and the fact that I now weigh less than 300 pounds for the first time in years!

I'm new to the community so I don't have anything exciting to report but I'm so grateful that my friend introduced me to MFP. I have tried to "diet" numerous times over the years. I don't think I've ever stuck to it for more than 2 days. I took some before pictures and I'm eagerly looking forward to posting my own success story once I reach my first mini-goal.

Congratulations to all of you and keep up the hard work! And keep posting those pics! They keep me out of the cupboards!

In 1 month, after tracking each day, you won't know what to do without MFP

It is great and I soooo wish I had found this while i was working on loosing my weight 170 lbs! Now I use it to track my maintenance cause I never want to get those 170 lbs back!

Hi there!

Welcome to the site. I've been here almost 6 months and am doing very well. It's very helpful to have friends here on MFP to motivate you and I too have drawn inspiration form people who are on similar journeys. DO feel free to ask for help when needed and remember, this isn't a diet, it's a journey. By treating it as such, you begin to see that this is going to require a change in lifestyle, with a realization that it will be a struggle, but one that is well worth it. You will find many supportive people and helpful tools and suggestions here. Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like I will try to be a support for you as well. Good luck to reaching all of your goals!

Thanks to all
