I'm not new to the site but I have just recently began using the calorie and exercise tracker ( before I logged in a book). Does anyone have any advice they could give me. I'm 5'2" , 165lbs with a current BMI of 29.9.

Good Luck to everyone!!!!!

    Best advise I can give you is READ, READ, READ!! Just read posts until your head explodes! they are full of such incredible, wonderful, super motivating information!!

    Here are two great ones to start with:

    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/6556-the-answers-to-the-questions

    when you are done, just start doing searches on things that interest you like recipes, or exercise.

    Stick with it, ask for help and it will work for you!!!

    I am down 17 with another 18 to go. Keep eating what they suggest in caloric intake. The more you exercise the more you can eat. I found that i am exercise a lot and having to eat alot! Of good stuff that is. It is too easy to fill up on high caloric bad food. Find some snacks you like, check the calories and have a 100 of snacks every day. I have found that Dried apples are good little snacks and also Vanilla wafers are a great little cookie you have about 8 of. Keep it up! You'll get there!!
