    Welcome! I'm glad your nutritionist sent you this way! MFP has changed the way I think about food. It's amazing how simply changing your relationship with food can change your life. Good luck with the surgery but I'd recommend giving this a try first! You might be amazed that you can lose weight in a healthy way, still treat yourself to things you enjoy, and become healthier without the risks of surgery.

    Totally agreed! Get yourself some friends on here and it makes the whole process so much easier :smile: Your MFP friends know what you're going through and will listen with enthusiasm when the people in "real" life are bored about hearing about weight loss.

    Glad to have you. I have used this site several times to get started. The trick is... work towards your goals. Not ever change happens over night. I am a teacher and a nurse... so during the winter If you need a follower.... I would be glad to give you HONEST feedback! and of course encouragement ohhhh.. and recipes! LOL!
