Hi!! My name is Teri and I have been using MFP for almost 3 weeks. It is awesome. I love it. I had lost 2 lbs. my first week. I weigh again tomorrow. I'm actually excited about it! That's a first. Anyway, any advice, info, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

First of all, WELCOME!!! :flowerforyou: This is a great site. My best advice is to plan and log your food for the day ahread of time. I usually do it the night before. While I know that may not be for everyone, it works great for me. If I plan for all of my food and workouts, I'm more likely to stick to it. It just becomes part of my schedule. I just joined 2 months ago and I've already lost 12 lbs!!! Good luck on your weigh in tomorrow. :happy: :drinker: :happy:

Thank you for the info. I have been filling out my food diary as I go and it does get a bit tedious. The advice to fill it out the day before is a great idea! I just might have to give it a try. And again, thank you!!!

Hi, and welcome! :flowerforyou:
I totally agree with the logging your foods first! I sometimes even log 4 and 5 days ahead! Makes things sooooo much simpler for me! I always recommend to the newbies to do that.0 -

Logging in advance always makes me feel sooooooo much more in control, I couldn't do it any other way either! :laugh:0
