Hi all -

I have heard over and over how wonderful MFP is, and yet I never took the time to investigate it. Until today. And I am really impressed so far!

I have a lot to lose, but I hope to take it one step at a time.

    Thanks Jill! I sent a request - I will take all the friends and support I can get! :)

    I have my current goal set at almost 53 pounds - although I might be able to drop about 10 more than that. I'd have to see when I reach it. :) (look, I said when! Positive thinking!!)

    There is so much to see on this site, I have been spending part of my workday entering my food and exploring!

    When I'm at work and don't have access to a computer, I write down what I eat and put it in my purse. That way I can add it when I get home!

MFP is the best weight loss tool I have ever used. Best of luck to you! If you need another friend to cheer you on feel free to add me. :o)
