    Welcome! I've been here for about 2 weeks and find the site great. You will learn alot about your eating habits when you log everything. I tell you , this has opened my eyes to how much junk we put into our bodies without giving it any thought. Keep logging your meals, search the message boards for the topics of interest and post questions you have. You'll do great.

    Your goals are close to mine.

    I wish you the best!

    Welcome! If any place can help you with weight loss - it's mfp! Don't worry - the network of people that you will meet here will keep you focused and motivated! To keep yourself from "over-indulging" at dinner, try eating more calories during the day. Maybe you won't feel so hungry at dinner time. Also try cooking only enough dinner for yourself - if there isn't any "extras" you can't go back for seconds! Good luck on your journey - I'm sure that you will succeed with mfp!

    Thanks Aw Mom, good point about dinner.

    The problem is my hubby eats a lot so I am also cooking more than enough for two...

    which leaves the door open for overeating..

    I will try to stick to NO SECONDS.

    I'm exactly the same - can't help myself during the evening just seem to want to pile on more food! Also going out to eat is a nightmare! I feel like I want EVERYTHING on the menu and then feel like I MUST eat everything on my plate since I'm paying for it!!! Am new to the site and would love to gain some friends to offer and gain support xxx
