in Introduce Yourself
I just wanted to say Hello, I just joined and already love this site. I'm looking forward to working hard and losing the weight and feeling healthy. After reading the message board I'm inspired by the kindness and support everyone is providing each other. I will check in on the boards periodically - rock on!

    What is a good 1200 calorie a day diet to follow? I like salty stuff and bread but not sweets.

    Welcome wkauffman, AND Gina AND LindyLou to the best site on the web! You are all going to sooo love MFP :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:

    Welcome to all of you:flowerforyou:

    MFP has changed my life.:bigsmile:
    Take the time to explore all the features of the site and you'll find the tools to help you on your journey.

    :flowerforyou: Look through the topics on "Motivation and Support" and find a compatible group to check in with frequently

    :flowerforyou: Look through the topics on "General Diet and Weight Loss" and you'll find answers to your questions about good food and meals or post a new topic with your question

    :flowerforyou: I found that it works for me to log my food the night before and then stick to my plan

    Take it one day at a time and take baby steps.:bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    and drink lots of water :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

    good luck---you can do it
