Hi All! I just joined this site tonight! I'm switching from weight watchers, since i'm sick of paying for it! :P

I am so far SO confused, but am hoping I will catch on quickly!

Helllooooooo :D

    it gets easier the more you use it :) once you've entered most of your regular meals and snacks at least once everything's close at hand to go in and add again.

    as a former WW user--welcome! i'm finding MFP to be FAR superior in so many ways. the social network aspect of it really goes above and beyond the support i used to get from weekly meetings. having the daily interaction makes the process so much more fun. i get so many great ideas from looking at other user's food journals. PLUS--and to me this is the most important--i'm learning WAY more about nutrition and my daily wants/needs from tracking calories, fat, protein etc. versus just points. Points didn't really teach me anything about nutrition! I felt like it was just a numbers game. So welcome to MFP and feel free to ask me any questions!

    That's funny you say that, because I feel like THIS is a numbers game... To be honest I'm kind of turned off by how I have to track my fruits and veggies. I'm planning my meals for tomorrow, and am left with like 300 calories for dinner, and I've hardly even put anything inn my tracker! I feel like I'm going to be so hungry! :(
