Tired of the weight

I am new here too, and I can't figure out how it adds up the calories, fat, carbs, and etc., content. How is it measured, do you all know? I mean is it by grams, or what?
I know what you mean by hiding the weight well, everyone tells me that I don't look as big as I really am. I am sick of feeling so disgusted with the poounds. I have felt better since I have started this, and I am looking for results.

Hi! I am new here too....1 wk old to be exact. I know dieting is a tedious thing and can be very discouraging. I did not think by doing this fitness thing was going to work. But I have stuck to it, even though i felt like nothing was going to change, but it has. I have lost my first 1.5 lbs, and that is an accomplishment to me! Be easy on yourself, and don't deny yourself ANY thing. Keep in mind that it's not about watching the scale, it's about watching HOW much you eat. Why should dieting be a miserable task? See, when we want to loose weight, we want it off immediately, not gonna happen. Take your time, pace yourself, set your own goals, make it a habit to log on, if you can, everyday. It becomes habit forming and it makes you totally aware of the things you eat. I find that MFP also works if you plan your menu ahead of time. That way you can make the needed adjustments so you won't go over before you have that meal. Stay encouraged, focus on what is inspiring you. U will be amazed at the results. Much success to you!
