Hi everyone, I'm Kari... just joined up a few days ago. I found this site looking for a calorie counter for the "No More Fat Pants" group the girls & I at work started last week. A group confessional revealed that all 5 of us only had 2 pairs (or less!) of dress pants that fit, while aaalll the others hung in the closet untouched. Time to do some work! Anyway, I liked the site so much, I stayed.

Some are doing Weight Watchers, some are doing low-carb, some are just doing their own thing. I've tried every fad diet out there and they all didn't work, so this time I thought I'd venture into unknown territory... less calories & more exercise... I've heard rumors it works =)

It's been a little less than a week and I can't believe how much better I feel! And my kids say the same!

    Hey i know how you feel with the pants! Thats one of the main reasons that i started this and googled "free calorie counter". Isnt this site so cool? I used to go to Weight Watchers and pay the fee every week but this is working better and i save so much money. Anyway welcome!

    Hi and Welcome:flowerforyou: I have been dieting two weeks now. The first week was very hard for me . I felt hungry all the time couldn't sleep. :frown: But now since I have been on healthy foods and not junk foods, I am feeling so much better. And being a diabetic it has changed my sugar levels to a perfect level, no more up and down. Good luck to you and all your friends I think your really going to like MFP:flowerforyou:

    Hi and welcome. I have only been on MFP for five days...the calorie counting thing was rough for the first day or so, but I feel better now. I have lost a little over a pound already!
