Hi all,
I joined this week and am blown away by all the success stories!I am 230lbs and so have a long way to go. I want to ultimately lose 56lbs which seems insurmountable at the moment but I'm going to give it my best shot!

    You have defiantly found a good tool with MFP. I just joined this week, but I find that logging my calorie intake makes me much more aware of how much I'm eating. Also, the people here are positive, very supportive individuals. Feel free to add me.
  • Welcome!
    I started at 235 in April and am now down to 217! It is totally doable!

    This site is great! I have not ever been able to lose weight by myself. I was up to 214 pounds and found this site in April 2011. I was down to 206 pounds when I found this site...and I am now down to 183! This site is what I log into every morning. By keeping a daily diary of what I eat....it keeps me focused. Also, reading the success stories and reading about the days people get "down" but pick themselves up the next day or so.....gets me going as well! Everyone has down days....weekends....and some even a month....but then they get back on track. IT is just sooooooo encouraging. Good luck and you WILL see results!!! : )
