here for a new bwgining

Welcome! This site is really great and will help you to get to your goals if you use it consistently. I wish you lots of good luck!!

Hi there!
I'm new as well, since Monday and I already love this site. I've been trying to lose 40 lbs. since forever and now that I'm keeping track of my calories, I know why. I was eating waaaaaay more than I should have. Even if it's healthy low cal food, my portion sizes were too big. Anyhooo - enough about me. You joined the right website to keep track and see your progress. It's hard keeping on top of everything but it really does help. I also just finished a very inspiring book called "The Amazing Adventures of Diet Girl" by Shauna Reid. It's a true story of a girl who lost over 250 lbs. It's very funny and very inspiring. I highly reccomend it. Good luck to you!
