Hi, I joined MFP 5 days ago and have been shocked at how quickly the calories mount up daily with what I am eating. I am starting on the very long road of trying to go from 216lbs down to 140lbs. Hoping the daily log of my food intake will help me achieve my goal.

    You will be able to do it... I went from 190 to 140 from keeping a food journal and trying to exercise every day... Good luck

    Hi from London. The calorie counter is great for me as even though I eat well I was overeating without knowing it. I love this site. Welcome, good luck and feel free to friend me.

    Hello from Georgia (USA), you can add me, good luck. You will be the closest I will get to Ireland, at least for now. I have always wanted to go.

    Hi from Ireland--Welcome. This is a great site and great people that are so helpful and encouraging. The food diary really helps. I'm on a forum "Need to lose 100 pounds, or more?" part 32. It's a great group of people and you might like to join us. I live on the east coast of the USA. If you need a friend just give me ask me.

    Hi Irish! My grandmother was Irish (last name Collins) and I always wanted to go there. Welcome to MFP. Its a terrific site. Its amazing how much logging your food & exercise can help-just need to be honest with yourself and log EVERYTHING so you can see where you need to change something. I wish you much success on your weight loss journey and if you wish add me as a friend- we all need as much motivation and encouragement as we can get. Diane
