    Eat at a deficit.
    Workout if that interests you.
    Pinterest is a great resource for recipes. I've tried tons of recipes from there, some I modified to make them fit my calorie or macro goals, but most of them have been delicious.

    Add me! Sometimes we need encouragement and people to talk to to help us through the struggle. Eat healthy, smaller portions, and if u don't like exercising, try walking, its easy and it helps.

    I feel the same way. I keep say I'm going to do this but, then get down on my self because I don't see the results I want then quit. This time thou I thought I would try something different. I never blog or talk to anyone or have friends do this with me. So that's my goal this time to widen out (not my butt, but you know) and find things that will keep me motivated. Like what do ya'll ( i'm a texan) try from Pintrest? I have Pintrest but I'm not very good at it. How do you get good recipes?

    Hi All
    MY name is Carolyn and I have always battled my weight. When I was a teen I was super active so that kept me lean but I was always heavier than my friends weight wise. Even now, friends that are the same size as me are often 20-30 lbs lighter. I don't get it. I also have to say I hate the BMI. It is a load of crap. Anyway, looking for some support and to make some new MFP friends to help cheer eachother on and get this once and for all. I wear a size 16 now and want to get down to a size 8 or 10 within a year. That would be about 50-60 lbs I think. please let me know if you would like to help motivate and keep each other accountable! Thanks

    This is Jamie Leigh and mommy of two girls under 3 years. After two c sections and winter babies in 3 years, I am trying to take off some pounds. My motivation is my girls, I want to play with them, not watch. I got a fitbit and have been at this since Christmas and am 8 pounds down. Sometimes we need that extra cheer team. Good luck to everyone, Starting is the hard part.
