Ive heard a lot of good things about MFP and im hoping that this can help me get to my ideal weight!!!! It every girls dream to fit into her dream dress and thats my goal!!! I have Prom coming up and i would be so happy if i could fit into the dress i want!!! Its really hard to stay focused when you live in a house where everyones is over weight and your the only one who is dieting. i think thats goin to be my biggest obsticle threw this whole thing!!! i need someone who can keep me focused on tha big picture and to remind me that i have a lil boy who needs me!!! i wanna be able to go outside and not complain cause its too hot or im tired!!!!! i really hope that MFP helps me get to where i wanna be in life!!!! im doing really good so far and i hope i can keep it up!!!!

    Welcome!!! Just wanted to tell you my little story, um ok not little but ya know...
    I have tried almost every diet, life change, food this and no food that way there is....
    I did good on the WW, but did not change my lifestyle for good.
    Life happens and now i am getting back to ME. I really like the MFP. It is helping me learn, truely learn what is in foods and how to eat, move and live for me.

    You come on in and give it a try.... It could be life changing!

    Well u can imagine how I feel. My brothers eat just about anything but dont gain any weight, those jerks. It does stuck to have little to no support but the thing is that u have to remember that this is for you, for a healthier better you. And I too want to fit into this certain dress. I have it hanging on my wall, LOL, so everytime I dont want to exercise I will see it and it pushes me. Weight loss is a slow and arduous process. It took us a while to get to the weight we are so it will take time to get to where we want to be. That you are on this site is a great first step. This is the only thing that has actually worked for me so I encourage everyone I know who is trying to lose weight to log on. Take it day by day and log in EVERYTHING, the good, the bad, and the oh so ugly. You will get to a point where you will see that cookie and think I dont want to log that in because it will throw off my count so you dont eat it, but it will take some time. I've been on here for two months and I still give in to temptation. As long as you balance it out with exercise :O). Good luck fitting into that dream dress and the best wishes for your weight loss journey. Feel free to add me if you wish. I am on here constantly, trying to encourage those around me to not give up!
