Hi! I'm new to Myfitnesspal! This whole calorie counting thing is very new to me! I have always been able to do the Atkins diet and been able to lose a lot of weight. That doesn't seem to be working as well anymore! I lost about 5 pounds the other week (water weight for sure), and since I have been logging my calories this past week and doing a little more exercise (biking, walking, etc), I have lost 3 pounds!

I really enjoy reading all the comments and posts! I think I am going to feel very comfortable sharing my questions and concerns and hearing from everyone! You are all my inspiration!!

    You will do great here! I did Atkins too and was pretty successful but then I'd kinda get off track and eventually gain it back because I love things like potatoes and bread! Also my doc said my cholesterol had gone up?? It shouldn't have but it did. Anyway, I find when you count and exercise you get to have anything in moderation! I like that kind "No diet" diet :)

    Feel free to add me if you like!

    Good luck!!

    Add me! I just started using MFP over a week ago. It seems to be a pretty nifty web site.
