I have tried losing weight my whole life, from pills to Atkins to weight watchers... All of them have worked for a short time, but I never had any long term success. MFP has been really helpful in my renewed attempt to lose weight.

I'm into week 4 and have been doing well, down 10lbs already!!! Having used the weight watchers online tools I can tell you MFP is definitely better and cheaper. While this is my first post, I have been encouraged reading the message boards and seeing the success stories.

I have plenty of weight to lose, but as MFP has already started to become a habit, I feel like I will reach my goal this time. And when I do, plan to see a success story with me riding a Harley (my carrot for losing the weight)

Skoal!!!

    I'm new as well. Just joined this week. I did WW with some success a few years back. I agree, they are expensive to use online and so far am very happy with MFP. And the community is great, very supportive! Good luck on your journey,

    Congratulations! I am in week two and I am down 10 pounds. 80 more to go! I have found no site that works as well than this one. Keep up the great work. You will soon be riding off into the sunset.
