    Hi spanorchid, welcome to MFP. I've been on here for a couple of months and I'm finding it really helpful in dropping the pounds - hope you can get the same out of it. If you need a friend fire away.

    Maybe start out with smaller tragets so you cna get easier victories.
    1. Buy a food scale.
    2. Read the stickys.
    3. Aim for your first pound loss.
    4. Log on MFP for 1 week and record all your food.
    5. Try and take a 5 or ten minute walk each day.
