edited October 2 in Introduce Yourself
I'm new here as of three days ago and can see quickly why this is such a great site. I'm introducing myself here and really hope to be a daily user of MFP. I'm amazed at what I've learned in 3 days about calories! That part alone is a HUGE reason I've become such a fast believer in MFP. I've lived my life oblivious to what I was putting in my body....paid NO attention to what amount of calories were going in vs how many were being burned by exercise. Being able to see the numbers has opened my eyes. I am poring over this information and trying to incorporate it into my new way of thinking.

Please add me as a friend and feel free to share your best tidbits of advice. I'm so open to taking on good, healthy weight loss ideas and philosophies.

Many thanks in advance!!!
:heart: :happy: :heart:

    Yeah, it has been working well for me. Now that I have friends reading my food diary - I lie all the time. Not really, they encourage me when I go over, and congratulate me when I make it work.

    Friend me if you like. Good luck!
