I'm looking to lose weight in a healthy way and to be able to keep it off... My best friend has started me on the right path but im not sure if i am able to keep it up. Im looking for some helpful hints and "friends" to help motivate me along...

    I recommend setting a near goal that can be reached in a month. I like many others tried and failed for a while due to not seeing the "instant" result and lost interest. By setting near/mid/far goals it has been easier for me to log in and track everything. Good luck and MFP is great.

    You know, I would post your regular foods for the first week, then try eating according to your calorie goals just so you can see the difference. You won't believe it! Once you start seeing progress, you will want to stay within your goals! Good luck, You CAN do it!
