My girlfriend just told me aboiut this site. I have given up that I can get these 25 lbs off, I haven been trying for years now. I just want to accept myself as I am. But like all good women I'm going to try one last time and use this. I am skeptical however I did walk today cause I knew I was going to be tracking today. I also am AMAZED that I can have no more fat grams today, I had no idea how those buggers add up. So I'm asking for encouragement, prayer and good thoughts sent my way to surprise myself and get this done!!!

    Accept yourself for who you are with the 25 pounds and believe in yourself enough to know you CAN get them off! I am constantly under my calorie goal but above the fat grams :( It's a learning process and a journey. Don't beat yourself up, just learn from the tracking and move forward.

    Welcome to the site :)

    It's been so amazing for me to see how much the calories build up! It's a big help just to be aware!

    Welcome! One day at a time! Keep tracking your food & exercise, read those food labels and you'll quickly find better food choices that meet your daily goals and don't leave you hungry. Tracking everything was a HUGE eye opener and a boost for me.
