    Being ready is more important than knowing exactly what to do:) The readiness is a hard thing, but the learning is a fun process and one that makes you feel better every day. Welcome to MFP!

    Welcome! Losing weight is great but getting healthier better! Doing both is the best! Follow whats recommended fort calories as well as carbs, fats and protein. Exercise is very important too! Start slow if you haven t in a while and don t give up!!! Don t be surprised if you don t lose right away! you re building muscle and that weighs more than fat! Good luck and stay active!

    Hello and welcome. ~smiles~

    Tips and advice?

    Don't try to rush things.
    Drink at least 64 ounces of water per day.
    Be diligent about recording everything you eat.
    Don't beat yourself up because you might go over your values, just learn from it and work on doing better the next day.
    One screw up should not equal giving up.
    Ask questions.
