in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone, I have been using MFP on my mobile for a little while but have now discovered how useful this website is and being able to share experiences and advice with each other.

I have been trying to lose weight now for years but I have struggled to find something I can stick to. I am finding that logging everything I eat is a real eye opener and it is finally starting to sink in where I have been going wrong.

If anyone would like to add me so that we can share our experiences and motivate each other it would be appreciated.

Thanks

    I'm with ya... logging everything has been more than an eye-opener, it's been a mind blower!

    I'm new to this as well & know what you mean about it being an eye opener. I couldn't believe how many calories I must have been eating in a day before joining here. Add on its way!

    HI!! I did log on here waayy back, but it seemed too complicated for me. Now that I've come back and really spend time doing the research and getting to know the app better, I'm amazed how easy it was logging everything! (Kuddos to the scanner!!) I love it when it's easier to track. I need all the help I can get. I need motivation and friends.. so if anyone out there wants to add me.. I sure would appreciate it.. thanks!!

    I'm new to this as well. I just signed up yesterday, I started working out abt 2 weeks ago because I need to lose abt 20 lbs and get my body fit for the summer. I love how I can log all my meals, I have to agree that it is definitely an eye opener

    I know what you mean. I downloaded the app about a year ago but never got into using it as I thought it seemed complicated. Finally got back into it and come onto the website alongside using my phone and I love it. So useful and motivating!

    Hi....I just recently started using MFP as well. I downloaded it on my phone back in December, but just recently discovered all the other resources it has. I am loving. I need all the motivation I can get.

    I'm new too. I signed up yesterday but today is really the first day I'm trying to schedule my food so I learn to stay under my 'budget' of calories :) Would love to meet new people as well. I have previously done weight watchers but the new system just isn't for me I think. Plus calories are more specific than 'points'. Good luck to everyone!

    Hi! Welcome!

    I really love this site too! It's not just a diet but just living a different lifestyle. When I started a little over 3 weeks ago I couldn't believe how much I was actually eating! Feel free to add me if you want! Good Luck!
