    Welcome to MFP!!

    I grew up in MI in a little town called Addison (smack between Adrain and Jackson). I sure miss the lakes up there. Still have family there so I visit from time to time.

    Welcome to MFP:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
    This is a great site. Take the time to learn about all the great features and use them.
    You will succeed if you work hard.


    Take it one day at a time
    Stay open minded to new ideas
    Take baby steps
    Drink lots of water:drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

    Think of this as a new way of life, not just a temporary diet.

    It always helps me to log my food first before I eat so there are no surprises.

    Find a group to be part of and check in with them every day.
