    Welcome!! You can add me as a friend. I have 110+ to lose. I started this week and am all ready down 3 lbs, so logging at this site is a huge help. Many times, I find that when I total my calories for the day, it helps me decide if I am really hungry or do I not want the calories. More times than not, I decide to exercise instead of eat because I'm just bored and not really hungry.

    Hi! Congrats on starting out for a new healthy lifestyle! I am currently trying to lose 4-5 pounds i just needed to lose about 10 and that's what i have left but for a word of encouragement...my sister lost 105lbs after having her first child so I know it can be done!!! Don't give up or give in!!! Keep going hard at it! Even when you get down and discouraged! She has kept it off for about 5 years and has since had a 2nd child and still kept it off and done good and her 2nd one is 2 now. You have to set your mind to it and just remember...success tastes better than food! =) Good luck!

    Welcome! I need to lose more than 100 lbs. Every hour every minute is a challenge especially when you travel.Please add me as your friend!

    Word of advise track your food and try to burn as much as you eat. My vice is the internet, I should be at the gym right now!!

    Been here a week myself and have over the 100 lbs to lose. Feel free to add me, I'll add you.

    To the poster before me: I don't travel but have the same challenge, work from home and it's so easy to find yourself in the pantry & fridge before you're even aware you got up from the workdesk :(

    One day at a time.....One pound at a time.

    I only have 40 to go.. but at the beginning of my health journey, even before MFP was in my life, I had 110 to lose.. so I would like to help in any which way I can. Feel free to add.. and welcome! I hope you're ready because this site is by far one of the greatest things that have happened to me. the people are amazing and the support is as well. :)
