Hello everyone! I heard about this website from a few friends of mine at work and I am hooked already.
So, here comes the cheesy introduction..lol
My name is Aimee, I will 24 in just a couple days (yikes), and I am married going on 3 years and we have a daughter who is 3 1/2 years old. I have let my body go after having her and now it's time to take some action! I am looking to shed major pounds but at the same time tone up and make sure that I am healthy. I work out using the Wii Fit and Fitness on Demand on Tv amongst some other exercises. I also am on my feet alot during the day as I work in the human services field.
I am excited to learn some great yips and ways to shed the weight and keep it off. This site seems like it is a great tool for anyone looking to lose weight and for support while doing it.
Glad to be here!

Hi Aimee, and welcome to THE best site on the web! :flowerforyou:
Between the easy to use food counter (which by the way is SUCH an eye opener!) and all the wonderfully supportive members, you WILL be able to lose the weight that you want to, AND, it'll "almost" be easy doing it!
I recommend logging ALL your foods BEFORE you have them, rather than later, as it tends to lead to better food choices. (not to mention you'll know if you've got enough numbers left to have a night time snack, like I ALWAYS try to do!) Some people also like to weigh and measure some things, such as meats, rather than just estimating and possibly being WAY off! :noway:
Don't go making the mistake that if you have LOTS of numbers left at the end of the day that you'll lose even faster, because that DOESN'T happen. Feel free to read any info about the site in the "help" section at the top of the home page. And also, under "all topics", then "general", and check out the first few threads. They'll really help you understand how MFP works.
Before coming here, I had tried just about EVERYTHING out there, including hypnosis, TWICE, and nothing really worked until MFP!
Also, drink LOTS of water, it REALLY DOES help! :drinker:0 -
Welcome Aimee!
I'm back after a one year hiatus and we'll all help each other. This is a great website and the people are so supportive. We'll stay motivated together!

Welcome,
I have been a member for 3 weeks now and I have loved this website. The people are encouraging and I love reading about the people's successes. It helps me. Counting the calories is easy and I don't go hungry. I'm also a nursing mom and I still get what both of us needs. This place is great, I'm sure it will be a big help to you.0 -
Welcome!!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
