Hello everyone! Apparently I've been on MFP for 40 days in a row (lol, my log tells me so), but this is the first time I'm posting in the forums.

I started using MFP about a week or so after I started working out and watching what I eat. So far, I have lost 17 pounds. I am about 16 pounds until I reach my goal weight, so I'm halfway there!

I love this app, and I've been telling all my family and friends about it! <3

    Nice work!! And welcome to the posting world, it really helps if you are having an off day or are looking for encouragement! Take full advantage of it!
  • I was on for over a month before any pounds came off at all. What i did was up my exercise to one hour on most days, nothing drastic but I set aside an hour to get moving. And I make sure I don't go over my calorie intake.
