Hi, I am Bob. I'm am either getting ready to give birth or in need of dropping about 40 pounds. I picked this sight and phone app to help me keep in mind what I'm eating above and beyond what I should be. Hoping it helps. Good luck everyone...

    Hi Bob, from one noob to another I will say welcome!

    I have tried to count calories before and found it to be a pain in the *kitten*, but using this app you get the urge to fill in your foods more often (quite often in my case whilst still eating :wink: ) By being honest and filling in every single item I eat or drink I have managed to stay on target. Quite often by learning to make smarter choices I find I can't actually eat enough! seriously

    So just stick with it and be honest and fill in EVERYTHING and it will do all the hard calculations for you. You will also find yourself looking at calorie values more when shopping - I love to check items I used to buy, just so I can roll my eyes and tut at myself ... lol

    oh and in times of need - read the forum, there are so many inspirational stories here that if you feel weak or off-track it really will help you, and so will the lovely MFPals!

    Good luck!!
