    Welcome! Congrats on taking the first step toward a healthier you! I am by no means an expert but I can suggest a few things: 1) Have patience. 2) Know exactly on what you expect from yourself. 3) log on MFP everyday. Good luck on your journey!!

    I'll add:
    4. Pick a program that's HEALTHY, and not a FAD.
    5. Drink 1/2 of your weight in ounces of pure filtered water EVERY day.
    6. Make sure you get SOME sort of exercise every day.
    7. Don't step on the scale every day, ONCE a week is fine.
    8. MEASURE as soon as you start, Chest, Waist and hips.

    There are LOTS more tips, but you can start there...

    Enjoy the journey!

    It works, it will get aggravating & annoying logging food on a daily basis, but, you learn what to eat, how to eat better, and it works. Build a strong support team and if you have a bad day, log it, start again fresh the next. Accountability in seeing what you eat helps tremendously.
