    Log on and fill out your food journal every single day and it will become habit. It take a while to develop a comfort zone but you will. Good luck and keep going!

    hi!! I'm new, although I've signed up for this site over a year ago..lol! I was using another calorie counting website, it's still good, but mainly has US food on it's database, I need a UK database, and viola, I found this website! :D I'd really like to connect with people struggling to lose weight, in my case baby weight, around 20lbs+ and it's been 19 months since I had my baby and couldn't seem to shed a pound!
    My details!
    SW: since I started calorie counting on May 26th: 78kg (171.9lbs)
    SW on my fitnesspal: 76.6 (168.8lbs)
    GW: 68kg (149.9lbs)
    sex: F
    age: 29

    Please view my profile and feel free to add me! :D
    thanks!

    Welcome. What you might try doing is adding more fresh veggies to your diet. I find them low in caloried but they feel me up. Just a suggestion also feel free to add me as a friend on here.
  • I'm counting myself new as well even though, I've used the site(very little) before. I know what I have to do now I just have to actually do it. Here's hoping that this time it'll happen

    It took me about 2 months to get used to my calorie limit, it gets so much easier after that! You can do it!

    The more exercise you do the more calories you are awarded. Fill half your plate with veggies and then 1/4 starch and 1/4 protein.
    Feel free to add me as a friend . The more support you give and get the better you'll do.
