I downloaded MFP in September as an app on my phone, but I didn't think counting calories would have helped my weight gain situation. My boyfriend had mentioned how one of his friends had lost weight with a calorie counter a few months ago and he said it was called "Myfitnesspal" and I thought "Hmm wait a minute, I have that App" So I gave it a go. . .

The start of my Journey 35 pounds heavier!

I am very happy to have achieved 35lbs off my body.
70lbs more to go! ( :

    You look great! How did you do it?!!! Um I am completely new to this site. I have tried counting my calories online before. My only prob. is I only have about 20 extra pounds to lose and it says I should eat no more than about 1,444 cals. a day when I do that by 7pm it feels like my body is in starvation mode. is this how im supose to feel? It almost feels like im eating nothing. and TODAY I messed up already I know but I had 1bowl of cocoa pebbles and 6ritz crackers with nutella spread (I KNOW NOT HEALTHY, It was a start of bad binge eating BUT I STOPPED) and now my cal. counter says I only can consume like 800more cal. for my day and thats it. So I feel like I will be starved by 6pm today. WHAT DO I DO? ANY HELP OR ADVICE WOULD B AMAZING! ONCE AGAIN GREAT JOB!

    I am 4'11 and going for 130 too :) It's a good shape for me. But might go lower when I get there (5lbs away!).

    You look so cute and fun! lol. I agree with others that you look like a total diff person. Awesome job!
