    Welcome Alison , I joined a little over a week ago. To my amazement , I have dropped 10 pounds already. The logging in of the food diary has been the most helpful . It really has been an eye opener, and challenged me to find foods and look at labels to meet my goal .
    You can do it , just keep logging , stay active, walk , jog, dance and tell us your results.

    After I had my son 3 years ago I weighed in at around 210. I started this site almost a month ago weighing 172, I am now down to 160. I have been even able to slurge every now and again. This site is helpful in showing you the calories you eat and even the ones you burn and I am sure everyone agrees it's awesome to be able to eat your exercise calories lol

    good luck I wish you the best.
