Hi all hope that we can all integrate to this new site while still supporting each other in the process . Trish

Aughhhh, sometimes you just get comfortable in your old routines and way of doing things. I guess a shakeup is good to get things rebooted every now and then. Maybe we will all get recommitted to our healthy lifestyles once we need to write out our goals and objectives again.24

I'm testing out 2 others too ! Lol2

Signed up for SparkPeople this morning. Kind of like it. May try using both for a few days and determine which one I will use full-time6

Ooh! And I yellow starred this so amazingly I'll be able to find it again! I need a glass of wine now after all this cc kerfuffle!12

Going to miss CC but it was the people there that made it great so if we can still communicate, talk about our days and get feedback from others I will be happy. I hope this will work and more of us CC'ers will come over. Thanks Trish for starting this and Chela for all the info so far, it has made the transition much easier... Chris13

Wow, here you are! I will put in my photo so you can recognize me... Yes. Thanks Trish for starting this. I need this community to keep me on track!4

Not looking forward to starting over with my food logs!6

I'm so, so sad that CC is shutting down!!! When I finally, FINALLY, got control of my weight loss and maintenance in 2016. I'm trying to figure out this new site and I'm hoping I can still log in my food to help me maintain. I need y'all to keep me accountable! Wah!!!

Oh my gosh I am so glad to see some framiliar names. I was MrsHunter on CC but that name was taken here GASP how dare they!!!
I am liking things here so far, but adjusting to a different log style was not a happy moment for me... I used to log everything in grams and almost all items do not have that option over here... I'm about a week in now and things are starting to flow smoothly. I have to say though, their recipe analyzer is WAYYY better than CC's was. that made me happy

Yes, I have started on Sparkpeople as well, just to see which is better. All in all, I am sure I could adapt to either.3 -
Thank you Trishcolli for starting this group! I will miss CC, but it was the community support I appreciated the most from the website. A food log, is a food log and I'm pretty adaptable with logging styles, as long as it offers my basic requirements. I utilize another Under Armour app, Map My Walk, and like the app well so I hope I have the same success with myfitnesspal (mfp). 5

Although I was a newbie at Calorie Count, I actually lost 30 pounds using that sight several years ago and recently had rejoined. Its so nice to see some familiar faces showing up here. I have a Sparkpeople account but felt CC was helpful in the area of social support. I hope everyone is able to adjust to a sight that will provide ease of journaling, helpful knowledge and social support.5

Nice to see some familiar names and pictures. I'm not sure yet that this will be the best place to land. Does anybody know anything about the Fitbit system?2

i was edgsmith on calorie count, but there's already an edgsmith on this website. i'll be edgoldsmith here. good to see so many familiar faces.4

glad we are all reconnecting here. it wasn't just the counting calories on CC it was the people we had never met, that we now consider friends.6
-
Thanks Trish! Glad you started this group so we can find eachother again!!1

I start to like this app, it synchronizes the FitBit exercises automatically!6

I've been disappointed to see that logging by weight, and in particular, by grams is not available for all foods. I've already emailed the developers about this problem. Many people, myself included, measure quantities by weight as it is the most accurate. I'm very surprised that this facility is not universally supported here.
If this issue is important to you, I encourage you to add your voice to it. You can email them at https://myfitnesspal.desk.com/customer/portal/emails/new4 -
It would be nice to designate one day--I propose the last day of February--on which we all write a log entry on CC in which we can say goodbye at the same time and tell our friends where we have gone and how to reach us.8
