    Hi, and welcome to THE best site on the web!
    Between the easy to use food counter (which by the way is SUCH an eye opener!) and all the wonderfully supportive members, you WILL be able to lose the weight that you want to, AND, it'll "almost" be easy doing it!
    I recommend logging ALL your foods BEFORE you have them, rather than later, as it tends to lead to better food choices. (not to mention you'll know if you've got enough numbers left to have a night time snack, like I ALWAYS try to do!) Some people also like to weigh and measure some things, such as meats, rather than just estimating and possibly being WAY off!
    Also, drink lots of water, that seems to help alot too.

    Thanks, y'all.

    I was a member of FA for awhile and I do weigh and measure all my food. I lost 35 lbs that way, but it is too restrictive for me. Unfortunately, I put back on 20 of it before finding this site. Thank you for the help and suggestions, I think I'll like it here!:mad:
