Hi all

This is my first day so thought I'd say 'hi'. I've been a serial dieter since I was around 15 and really want to get away from following a specific diet and instead be someone who just eats healthily and exercises regularly. I've tried Slimming World, Weight Watchers, Atkins, the 3 Day Diet and the Master Cleanse (to name a few!)

I hope this site will help me to have a more healthy approach to food... I've had enough of fad diets.

    I agree with @gdnplnty, "Master Cleanse" sounds ominous!

    Welcome to MFP. While the site won't "make" our weight change, I've found that it provides two factors that can increase the likelihood of our success. MFP offers support and accountability. I'm a newbie too, but this community is one of the most encouraging "places" you can be. I would encourage you to have an accountability partner (or three).
