New to My Fitness Pal!

Options
I am new to the site. Need to lose 50 pounds. I've tried many, most always lose but never keep it off.

Planning for this to be "the last time" because it will be a lifestyle change. I am going to learn to make good
choices and be active. (this will include learning to treat cheese dip as a treat and not a food group!)

    Yay! I keep telling myself that the longer it takes me to lose the weight, the more practice I will have at maintaining it!
    (Psssst - As it turns out, butter's not a food group either!)

    Good Luck & Good Eating!

    I am new here as well. I just joined this morning after a very long and sad night of being frutstrated and alot of self loathing. I am so glad I found the site and that I can use it on my IPOD. I found it so easy to add the foods I eat so I think it will be easy to stick with. Wish me luck.

    Welcome, I'm in the same boat as you but this site helps me to be accountable as far as what I eat aswell as everyone here can relate to the weight loss struggle... I am losing weight because I'm encouraged by what others on this site are able to do in the way of weight loss. You'll really enjoy using this site.
