New with 36 lbs to lose!

Hi! I just signed up tonight and I like it already. It makes me feel better that I'm already on the right track with my eating. I started focusing on eating better a couple weeks ago and I've already lost 6 lbs. I've got a beautiful dress in my closet just waiting for me to be able to fit in it again. I'm the maid of honor at my best friend's wedding on July 21st, and that's my motivation to crack down. It's one thing to say "I need to lose weight," and it's another thing to have a deadline. Happy to be here, and happy to be getting healthy!

It totally helps to have a dog who loves to go for walks with me!!!

    I lost 25# last year in 2010 getting ready for my wedding on 10/10/10 ... I kept it off until these past 7 months it seems it all came back. Lack of exercise :( .. I'm new to MFP and so far have lost 2# ..

    Thank you!
  • I have been using this app for over a week now and couldn't rave more about it. The ease at which you log in foods and servings is unmatched. Best of luck!
