    Hi;
    you are right we can help each other. Nothing worse than getting advice from someone who does not have a weight problem and can not possibly fully understand.
    I have been recording every bit of my intake since my granddaughter introduced me to this site and have lost over 5 lb in just 2 weeks. No diet foods just watch the portions of my favorite foods. Writing it down and entering it soon here is key, because it is amazing what we can accumulate in one day. i have company today and every time i took a tsp to taste the gravy I noted it on a piece of paper same with everything else. OMG you can not believe how those little things add up. It is also amazing to know that when you type in even an off brand they have it listed as long as you spell is 'perfectly.' One little letter wrong and they do not recognize it.
    So good luck to you, I am actually enjoying keeping track and looking at the scale each morning when I get up, same time after bathroom in the buff so there is no change in weight because of clothing etc.
    Again the best to you and keep us posted, I am sure there are a lot who are interested in your progress.

    again for me it is not a diet I follow but simply portion control. I eat EVERYTHING but less than half I used to.
