    Hi Harmoni, (GREAT name!) and welcome to THE best site on the web! :flowerforyou:
    I know all about being "too content", so I know just what you're talking about!
    Between the easy to use food counter (which by the way is SUCH an eye opener!) and all the wonderfully supportive members though, you WILL be able to lose the weight that you want to here, AND, it'll "almost" be easy doing it! :wink:
    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! :noway:
    Also, drink LOTS of water, it REALLY DOES help! :drinker:

    Hi, there.Welcome to MFP.We are all in the same boat trying to get to the seashore, so hang in there.At first try to know all your eating habits.Log everything you eat, if it is not in the list add it or if u have any problem let me know and I'll give some sites where you could find it and then log it.Log also everything you do.After the first week which is the hardest one, things get easy.For me I just found that eating less of what I used to eat, have given me some advantage; yes, I have lost weight, slow, easy and enjoying the ride.
    So, just log all info and then you'll do whatever you want to do with your weight.You just compromise yourself of what you want to do.Support, oh yes; you'll find all kind of support in here.This is GREAT.
    :flowerforyou: :bigsmile: :drinker: :smile:
    Nice having you in here, pal...take care and good luck.

    Aww, it's too bad you're NOT getting any support at home! I know that in my own case, I wasn't getting any from my husband, AT FIRST. He figured it was "just another diet", and I'd been on SOOOOOOOO many over the years, he, (and ME too, if the truth be known!) figured I'd go gang busters for a week or two, and then that'd be it. Well, we were BOTH pretty surprised at how the weight started coming off, and I DIDN'T up and quit and just go back to my old ways.
    He REALLY got supportive when I started looking thinner. He even started bragging about me to all his friends.
    Soooooo, just because you're NOT getting the support now, just wait! Once you show everyone how serious you are, and the weight starts to come off, you WILL get all the support you need! :smile:
