    Hello!! Welcome! i have been doing this for a while, I am very close to my weight goal and now is when this is becoming more difficult, but I keep plugging my food everyday.
    Meal planning and meal prep are key because it will prevent you from eating out. Make sure you don't keep unhealthy snacks around the house so you won't be tempted to snack on them.
    Feel free to add me if you like!, would love to help you if I can :)

    Hi

    Welcome to MFP! I'm kind of I'm the same boat as you, but I have more weight to lose. I've been actively using MFP for a little over a month. I've lost 12 lbs since I started here and 7 before. I sent you a friend request, maybe we can support each other.

    Hi :smile:

    I'm new to this also but really enjoying it so far, especially the tracking exercise and calories part as i'm very visual and find that seeing my progress written down is best! I agree with the above comment "Meal planning and meal prep are key because it will prevent you from eating out. Make sure you don't keep unhealthy snacks around the house so you won't be tempted to snack on them." BANG ON. Meal prep is KEY! I'm sitting at 72kg's and looking to get to 62kg's - I'm going to do this with clean eating and exercise 5 times per week. What sort of exercise are you doing? Remember that it is 80% Diet and 20% Exercise.

    I'm trying to lose 30lbs too. I log my food on here and have a activity tracker. I'm determined this time.
