    And it is! I've lost almost 20 lbs in 40 days on here. I know that kind of loss is not going to continue because my body is going to get used to working out and it will want to hold onto fat, but I'm doing my best to trick it into thinking that it can let go of as much as it wants! Welcome to MFP!!

    Welcome Deanna. This is a wonderful site. For me it was most helpful once I joined some of the challenges. They help me to keep myself accountable and motivated. Please friend me if you like some support. It would be nice to know a little more about you. You don't have any info on your page. Good Luck on your journey:happy:!!!

    It's a great site. Don't be shy to ask people to friend-up, I like to have a handful who are kind of similar to me to benchmark myself against and get feedback from. The "Community" section is a great place to look for advice on everything, recipes, running shoes, etc. etc. It's a good site all around.

    Welcome Deanna. I have started feeling better since losing my first 5 pounds. I wish I did this earlier, I don't know what I was thinking laying around like a slob before! You'll find that this is a great site for motivation as well as to track the calories you consume. I've found that I feel guilty, not in a self loathing but positive way, when I track foods I've eaten that are horrible for me. So knowing that I'll feel guilty further deters me from making poor food choices. Best of luck!

    Welcome :flowerforyou: This site is amazing!!! I am so addicted!! I so agree with aablacknell, join a challenge group, just keep an eye out on the message boards for one that looks good to you. I joined one and we are losing as much as we can by Christmas. It is really motivating!!! So great to have people to share with and get support from.

    Feel Free to Friend me ~ Best of Luck :happy:
