    I totally agree with your post......20lb is amazing well done. I am worried I am eating the same types of foods, any tips?

    Been here for a month or so, but wasn't tracking my food, only my fitness. So this is my first week of tracking calories, etc. 5 weeks of only going up and down the scale by 2-3 pounds was really getting to me, so time to watch the intake. 70-80% diet, 20-30% fitness. Silly me, I should have done this long ago.

    Yesterday was the first day I actually came onto the website, been using the app. Only on my phone, the app doesn't support the community feeds/threads, etc.

    Welcome to everyone! And best wishes on your journeys!

    I'm slightly new here too, I've been tracking my food for only 2 days, and I'm eating HALF of the calories I'd eat on a normal daily basis, which I find amazing. By seeing how many calories where in my food that I was eating, I was completely shocked. I didn't know it was that much! Now, I get to see how many calories I'm consuming, And switching to veggies and healthier choices. I know 2 days is a short amount of time, but I feel proud of myself. I'm a big girl, with ALOT to lose,and I plan on losing it all with the help of MYP ! Plus, even with switching to healthier stuff, I still feel full !

    This is my 5th day here and I am loving it. I feel that I have finally taken control of what and how much I am eating and making overall better food choices.

    How is the amount of protien you are to be eating in a day calculated. My daily amount seems to be low. I have been trying to do 30 minutes of cardio and weights 5 times a day. My understanding is that I should be making sure I eat 4 oz. of protein with each meal when you are active. Does anyone know how to adjust the food tracker to take this into consideration?

    Welcome! I am also just completing my first week. I have added the app to my phone. I find this my easier than trying to write down my activity and food. Good luck!

    It is a great site and definitely helps you to focus on what you are eating, burning, etc.
