    Welcome! I'm sure you can do it. Just remember to take it one day at a time, and make small changes. Any improvement is better than none.

    I joined myself very recently, and have found reading through the "community" threads daily gives me inspirations, and focus. On a few mornings I have woke up and thought not today, but after a read through with my morning cuppa.

    seems to draw me back into the right frame of mind!

    I am not dieting, I have more then 100lbs to lose, have lost 60 so far (mfp I started after I started my journey). I just try to make better choices and this help me remember to portion and pay attention to what I chose. I am a christian and chose to do and say what glorifies God. would love to take this journey with you. so add me if I am the kinda person that you would like to have as a friend

    Hello. I just joined myself. I'm hoping to drop some pounds for this coming winter so I have some halfway decent christmas pictures to post. I didn't dare post my last christmas pics. What a wake up call. Add me if you would like and hopefully we can motivate each other. :)

    Welcome to MFP! If you are indeed ready to begin this journey, you will find MFP very helpful. You will have a great support group and being able to track everything you put in your mouth will help tremendously. I have 100+ to lose and have already lost 16lbs in a month and a half...

    If I can be of any assistance, holla at me :bigsmile:

    im new here too.. I want to loose like 50+ for me, a cronic dieter.. I find it's easiest to just log my food and when you see on paper or screen what youare eating you will be amazed how easy it is to make the right choices!

    Ah men, trying to find those who I can inspire and more importantly those who can inspire me! Knowing you're not alone means so much! Losing weight is hard and having a community is everything.
