in Introduce Yourself
I am new here, and hoping that writing down what I eat will help me learn. (I need a lot of help) I am about 284lbs so I have a lot to lose. Just started today with writing it down. I do exercise quite a bit, and other than being over weight I am healthy. Thanks for any help or advice. (would really like to know some things that help you feel full) I do drink mostly water. I have already had about 6- 8oz glasses. and its only 9am.

    Good morning to you both!

    I have been on here for a bit and I have to say this is an amazing tool. However, I have fallen off the wagon and need inspiration and encouragement to get to the healthy place I want to be! I have added you both as friends and hope that you will accept and I hope that we can be each others motivation and encouragement to keep up the good work. We have to remember that this is not a Diet but a Happy and Healthy life style change!
    Let’s go kick some butt!!!:wink:

    All feel free to add me....... If you stay within your goal, you will definitely see results. I noticed that writing down your food and counting calories really makes a difference in what you eat. If you stick to it, you will definitely see the results you want.... Sticking to it is the main thing.

    I noticed that when i first started i was always hungry. I ate a ton of fresh veggies almost all day..lol they filled me up and didn't use a lot of calories... plus they contain a ton of nutrents! It's been 40 plus days now and i am finding i don't feel the need to snack as much, but when i want o it's veggies I have lost 18 pounds so far so it's working:-)

    wow... you guys are great! I really think this will help me. I am sure writing it all down will help too. Make me more aware of what I am putting in my mouth.
