Going to Look Like I'm 23 while able to finally act it!

Options
Ready to make a change and kick it into high gear! My best friend used this website and had GREAT success! I'm ready to follow in her foot steps. I am no longer going to spend a summer indoors or hiding in the back away from everyone. I have a very spunky personality that has been hiding from everyone and every event for the past 5ish years. Time to enjoy life and realize that I only live once! So I need a support team so if your willing to help me, then I'm willing to motivate you as much as I can as well!:wink:

    Hi Kati, and welcome to THE best site on the web! :flowerforyou:
    Sounds like you've definitely got the right attitude! :smile:
    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!
    Don't go making the mistake that if you have LOTS of numbers left at the end of the day that you'll lose even faster, because that DOESN'T happen. Feel free to read any info about the site in the "help" section at the top of the home page. And also, under "all topics", then "general", and check out the first few threads. They'll really help you understand how MFP works.
    Before coming here, I had tried just about EVERYTHING out there, including hypnosis, TWICE, and nothing really worked until MFP! :love:
    Also, drink LOTS of water, it REALLY DOES help! :drinker:
