    Welcome on board and enjoy the change in lifestyle that will help you reach your goals. Remember blogs etc are all full of advice and things that have worked for others. There is no harm in trying those BUT they may not all suit you and you may find things that help you that are not mentioned. Also remember it's not a race a little weight loss per week is the best way. It's all good fun enjoy and good luck in achieving your goal.

    Welcome aboard! This is a great website. I've found that it's helped keep me motivated and on track because it takes the guess work out of logging calories and exercise.

    Feel free to add me as a friend and we can keep each other motivated!!

    Good luck!! :happy:

    Welcome Keianne! I have been using this for 20 days now, and I am VERY pleased with the results! My wife took a picture of me shirtless and taped it to the bathroom mirror, so I could use it as inspiration every day. I am happy to say that I can definitely see a difference! I am losing one pound a day (except for Cinco de Mayo, where I cheated by eating Mexican twice and it cost me a week of progress, but I am back on track now).

    I read the labels on everything I eat now. I was amazed at how much junk and empty calories I used to eat. I have not added excersize to my weight loss regime yet, but it is coming. My weight loss has been entirely from calorie reduction.

    Good luck on your journey!
