I am ready now to dedicate myself to weight loss. I want to feel better about myself and keep myself healthy for my family. Good luck to everyone on there weight loss goals.

    Welcome. This is a great site and you seem to have the right attitude. I think with those 2 combined factors, you will be successful. Best of luck to you! :smile:

    :flowerforyou: Welcome to MFP! I'm sure you will lose the weight that you want to if you use the food and exercise diary that is provided. I find logging my meals the night before helps a lot to stay within my allotted calories. Logging the night before will also let you know how much you need to exercise the next day so you can eat everything that you logged!

    Hi, and welcome to THE best site on the web!
    Between the easy to use food counter (which by the way is SUCH an eye opener!) and all the wonderfully supportive members, you WILL be able to lose the weight that you want to, AND, it'll "almost" be easy doing it!
    I recommend logging ALL your foods BEFORE you have them, rather than later, as it tends to lead to better food choices. (not to mention you'll know if you've got enough numbers left to have a night time snack, like I ALWAYS try to do!) Some people also like to weigh and measure some things, such as meats, rather than just estimating and possibly being WAY off!
    Also, drink lots of water, that seems to help alot too. :drinker:
