HI! I am excited to start looking at loosing weight by getting healthy. I am a busy mom just like alot of other women who have signed up for this service. I tried another program where you had to log your foods and I did well. I just didn't have the stay with it factor. Now, my cholesterol is high and I MUST get healthy. I have the support of a wonderful family and great friends who are pushing me along and making me honest. It is nice to be able to log on and input what I have eaten throughout the day to keep me on target. I look forward to getting healthy with you all!:bigsmile:

    Welcome :flowerforyou:
    I was on Simvastatin for my high cholesterol for 6 months, I cut out salt, and ate a lot more healthy, and now I no longer need the meds :bigsmile:
    Good luck :drinker:

    Hi, and welcome to THE best site on the web!
    Between the easy to use food counter (which by the way is SUCH an eye opener!) and all the wonderfully supportive members, you WILL be able to lose the weight that you want to, AND, it'll "almost" be easy doing it!
    I recommend logging ALL your foods BEFORE you have them, rather than later, as it tends to lead to better food choices. (not to mention you'll know if you've got enough numbers left to have a night time snack, like I ALWAYS try to do!) Some people also like to weigh and measure some things, such as meats, rather than just estimating and possibly being WAY off!
    Also, drink lots of water, that seems to help alot too. :drinker:
