    Welcome to MFP. My advice is to just log your intake accurately and honestly. Everything else will come. Good luck!

    You're reaching out... You're on MFP!! ☝☝ like they said, logging everything is a great starting point.. No need to go crazy and all the sudden start with a 1200 cal goal, you'll burn out in two weeks... Log as you're eating now, in a few days you'll really see patterns of where you can make adjustments.. Maybe cut soda or that afternoon chocolate.. For now, be excited you're starting!!

    Great advice you two! I'll ditto what they said, and add that I have already seen a definite benefit to reading/sharing others' goals and discussions. Good luck to you! :)
