Hey I'm new to MFP. Been counting calories for about 3 months now, but on here for only 3 days. it is much easier here. but It'd be nice to not go through it alone. :]

    Welcome! I too just began counting calories here because of convenience. Congratulations on the progress as well! Anything is achievable with a little discipline and effort. I have gained and lost over 100lbs 3 times in my life...I have currently kept it off for over 5 years now. I know that weight loss can seem daunting sometimes, but its day by day, and lasting results come with time.

    3 times? what made you regain?
    I know, I've realized it takes consistency and patience. Before I thought I just needed to work out hard enough. I've ignored nutrition entirely until a few months ago. I accidentally bulked up 60 lbs last year because I ate whatever I wanted and worked out everyday. But now its different. I've made many attempts at losing weight but this is the only attempt that's working. It's crazy how I've only have been missing the calorie part all a long.
