Starting on my weightloss journey. Not sure how to go about it after many tries and stumbles. Thought I'd start with MFP to get a grip on what I'm eating. Anyone have any suggestions let me know

    MFP is the best tool I've ever used for weight loss :]
    It's also kept me positive and motivated - which is key to the process.

    You can do this. Good luck!

    Hi there, I also started 1 week ago, finding it good so far . I like I know what I am eating and seeing when to stop when reached daily intake. I am a nightshift worker going about scanning ppl food lol.Its encouraged me to exercise more if I do want that piece of cake go walk with my dog or jump on my treadmill , even the dreaded housework surprising how much you use doing it so win win situation dogs are happy Iam happy and house sparkling ha ha . good luck on your journey.

    MFP is one of the best tools I have used and I have tried about everything out there. I love the support and motivations from these boards. Take it one day at a time don't let a slip up derail you everyday is a fresh start remember that. I used to get frustrated if I gave in and ate something I felt was "bad" on this plan you can eat what you like moderation is the key CI/CO approach and so far it has worked for me. Nice to have you. Good luck and congrats to you for wanting to be healthy. :)
