I'm a rookie

Options
So I have found myself in the rutt of habitual weight gain. I'm frankly tired of feeling this way and looking this way. My past endeavors have been unsuccessful but I would starve myself and not pay attention to calories in or out. I'm hoping that by keeping track with myfitnesspal and a little support that I will have positive results that last. Thanks for reading!

    one rookie to another: you've made a good start. trying something new and actually paying attention to what you eat, tracking calories, and working toward a goal. I hope it works for both of us!!! I am a total newbie - day 2 but feeling good about doing this!!!

    This has been good for me. I used to try to diet, but would feel SO hungry I would give up after just a few days. Logging has been so awesome for me. I make better choices during the day and am usually able to eat a pretty good desert at night. It has helped me stop mindless eating too.

    In terms or eating and dieting, I'm a veteran. this is the best place I've ever been and the most success I've ever had that I really know I'll keep long term. Good luck to you. You can do it.
