I just became a member. I am hoping that I can do this. I need to lose a lot of weight and I really need help. I am a emotional eater and also like to snack all the time. I am hoping to make some friends and get some support. Thank you!!!

    Hi Cissy, 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:
  • Hi Cissy. I'm Amanda. I am new as well and was hoping to make some friends. I think support is a major part of weight loss. Many of my friends are tiny and it is hard for them to understand being overweight. Most of my eating is out of emotion or boredom and I have a good bit of weight to loose. Would you be interested in starting a support group?
