My name is Rebecca and I just joined MFP to try to help me eat better and loose weight. I have already learned a lot about myself in the 4 days I've been exercising and tracking calories.

    Welcome and Good Luck.
    Log on everyday and take it slow. Educate yourself on healthy foods and try to stay away from processed and fast foods. Eat lots of fresh fruits, veggies, whole grains and fresh meats and fish. Cook for youself. Don't buy thing that are going to tempt you. If it's not in the house you can't eat it. Get healthy snacks. Read the lables and watch PORTIONS> If you get yourself a food scale it really helps you with portion control. Log in your foods before you eat them. If the numbers are too high make another choice. It's like a puzzle. Once you make all the pieces fit, you are able to see the whole picture

    Hi,

    I just joined myfitnesspal today on the recommendation of a friend. I've been using another online tool. But I was told that the online community is much more robust on this site. I have 6 more pounds to go to hit my goal weight. I hope to get inspiration and share a little bit too on myfitnesspal.
