Hello my name is Shawn and I am into my second week on this site (after watching my girlfriend and co-workers use it) I must say that is so awesome so far and I have learned a lot about calories and the horrors. Just for fun last week I added up the calories of the meals I used to eat at Outback, Olive Garden, Chilis, Bojangles and etc.....I was laying in the fetal position for hours crying afterwards (OMG I ATE LIKE I WAS A SCHOOL OF PIRANHA)
My girlfriend and I enjoy looking at everyone's tips, forums, and diaries for support, inspiration and motivation.

    Hi Shawn,

    It is a great place! I hear ya on logging what you used to eat - I seriously was eating 3,000 calories a day with no exercise - no wonder I gained 50 pounds! Good luck to your and your girlfriend on your journey.

    Welcome :-) and good luck with your journey!! You did the right thing by adding those things up and even though it was shocking at least you know where you need to make changes!!
