I joined about a week ago and LOVE this site. The food tracking is perfect - I've managed to actually STICK to a diet, because I know exactly how many calories everything is (so I can treat myself by 'trading' calories by having a smaller proportion of something else.)

Also, all you guys on the message boards are really inspirational. When I see people with trackers saying "50lbs lost" or "124lbs love" I'm just in AWE. I've only lost a few pounds so far and I know what a struggle it is and how tough it is to stay focused and on track for weeks and months. You guys are REALLY inspirational to have stayed in it for the long haul and achieved amazing results.

Really pleased to be here and be part of this community!

    This is the only place I have ever had any real success and I don't have to cut out any one food group entirely. Welcome!

    Welcome! I definitely agree that this site definitely has the greatest variety of foods in their database which allows me to find out EXACTLY how much I'm eating.
