Hi All !
Thought I would try something new since nothing else is working for me. I've never had to the patience to count calories in the past, but I hear it works, so I thought I would give this a try. Wish me luck !! :happy:

    Hi, and welcome to THE best site on the web! It really DOES work! :happy:
    Nothing else worked for me either, including trying hypnosis, TWICE!!! But, since coming to MFP, I HAVE finally managed to lose most of the weight that I was so desperate to lose! :love:
    Between the easy to use food counter (which by the way is SUCH an eye opener!) and all the wonderfully supportive members, you WILL be able to lose the weight that you want to, AND, it'll "almost" be easy doing it!
    I recommend logging ALL your foods BEFORE you have them, rather than later, as it tends to lead to better food choices. (not to mention you'll know if you've got enough numbers left to have a night time snack, like I ALWAYS try to do!) Some people also like to weigh and measure some things, such as meats, rather than just estimating and possibly being WAY off!
    Also, drink lots of water, that seems to help alot too. :drinker:
