    I just started this site and I really like it. I like seeing what I'm doing broken down. It also makes me check myself cause if I eat it I know I'm going to have to put it in my log later. =)

    This site is fantastic! I am motivated everytime I log in and before I decide to put something supersaturated in my mouth, I KNOW that I will have to log it. So I think twice all the time about what I am eating and how I want my log to reflect about me. Not to say that I don`t have my weak moments, cause trust me, I do. But this site helps tremendously! I lost 6 lbs just in the past week and I know that I can still keep going strong. Feel free to send me a friend request.

    welcome this site is so easy to use and i have found this to be the best way of loosing weight and easy to stick to , i know if im going out for dinner to not just have the full day off but still keep on track for the rest of the day but just have that meal off and do exercise and i have found this sucessfull although for the first month i didnt go off at all so i could get used to it. you can also eat what you like as long as you are within ur calories.you may find it easier doing some sort of exercise each day for the 1st week so you can eat more calories so ur not hungry all the time. enjoy seeing the pounds drop off :smile:

    :flowerforyou: Welcome!!!!!! I am totally addicted to this site!!! The people are so supportive. I'm in the very SAME BOAT!!!! I'm not gonna sink this time. I'm going to do it and keep it off. When I finally reach my goal I will need all my friends here more than ever to keep it off. This site has helped me push harder at the gym and be accountable. I am signed up for a local 1/2 marathon in Nov and I just started a running class.....way out of my comfort zone. I am finding it more challenging to lose at my age......:sad:

    I could go on and on....Feel Free to Friend me -

    Good Luck!!! You can do it!

    Welcome.....I was in your shoes 3 weeks ago when I started MFP. So far i have lost 4.8 pounds -- 20 more to go by Dec. 1. The best advise is stay true to yourself -- log everything, no matter if you go over your calorie count -- it really helps. Also, great sight for support - I am on here at least 6 - 10 X/day -- it really helps. Add me as a friend - and good luck, we are ALL here for you :flowerforyou:

    I know how you feel! I was saying the same thing a week ago. I needed something to keep me accountable for my weight and my eating habits and I stumbled onto MFP. One week down and I am loving it. No giant weight loss but wasn't expecting that, just keeping me reined in and aware of my eating habits. I feel like this is something I can stick with long-term. You can friend me if you like. I don't know about you, but I can use all the support I can get!

    You came to the right site, my friend. This site definitely helps you to get on track and lose the weight. I tried every way to lose weight, and I couldn't. I've been as big as 240 pounds(in high school), and was able to go down to 184, which is where I stuck for many years. This summer, I got pissed. I wanted to lose more, and I was in serious attack-the-fat mode. I been seriously working out for a couple of weeks, and I have lost about 7 pounds already!
    This site has wonderful people on it who will encourage you every step of the way.

    If you want to add me, feel free :-)

    I just joined today! Already I can see that this is going to change the way I look at food and nutrition. I bought a little index card notebook (spiral) -- beautiful neon colored cards at Target to make a page for each food I need to eat every day, listing the protein, carbs, fat, protein and calories. I can carry it with me anywhere I go so I don't get off track.

    It takes 3 weeks to form a new habit,, so hang in there!

    Welcome aboard. Feel free to add me as a friend. All I ask is if you are the type of person to use foul language on here, then ignore this post. I do not like to read anyones ugly words and will unfriend people when I see too much. Good luck in losing weight. This is an excellent site for support and motivation.
