Hi Jamie, I KNOW it works to count calories on this website! I have lost almost 10 pounds in 20 days! You can do it too. (maybe not that fast, i just started). I would love to be your friend and support you. Friend request me.....

If you would like, you can friend request me.... We will work on it together.

Congrats on your upcoming nuptials! You can do it!

Welcome! MFP will help you if you use it and stay accountable for everything that goes in your mouth. I know it will! I have used it since July 1st and lost 8.5 lbs. You can do it!! Good luck . (friend request me if you would like)

Wow! Your story is so fabulous. And I must admit funny....The Pants of Hope...Good job. You look awesome.

You can do it!!! Good luck!:happy:

Hi! I count calories and that seems to work for me. I have lost 8.5lbs in 16 days. I am still kind of new to this site too, but I can tell you it sure helps with motivation and accountability. I record every single thing that goes in my mouth. I don't know what you are doing to lose weight but you can find info on just…

Welcome Andrea, this is a great place to get help. The biggest thing that has helped me is the food diary. If you stay accountable for what you eat then weight loss will happen....Good luck! Friend request me if you would like.

Welcome, I think you will find this site and the people on it very helpful. I too was overwhelmed at first. I also need to lose about 60 lbs. With this site to help me I have lost 8.5lbs. since July 1st. All you have to do is focus on one pound at a time. It will happen if you keep track of calories and continue to…

I would like to join...I'm 5'1, but I'm not very fit yet..

I also have completely ignored FB. I get on once in a while, but I am more interested in what's going on here on MFP. It is so supportive and helpful with great people to talk to and support me!

I really got started on July 1st and I've lost 7 lbs! I really believe in this website. It has kept me honest about what I eat. By the way, I will be having a knee replacement in August or September. Could you message me about your experience as I'm quite nervous. By the way I'm 40. Young for a knee replacement, but I've…

I will definatly support you. Friend request me :smile:

I agree that drinking water before and with meals is helpful. I drink a lot of water and very rarely feel hungry even though I am on 1450 calories or less a day. I hope it helps. Good luck!

I thought at first it was a lot of work to log in and keep track of calories, but now it is just a habit that I enjoy. Congrats on your weight loss. That is really something to be proud of.

Thanks for all the comments. I don't feel quite so bad about my obsession with the scale. I guess there is no right way to weigh, and it's just what works for you.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Saturday is my 18th wedding anniversary and you have brought me a new perspective to celebrating and appreciating my husband. Thank you and good luck!

I am a great example of what happens when you don't take control of your post baby weight. I am still carrying weight from my pregnancies, 1989,1993,1995,and 1999. Wow, the kids got older but I kept the weight on. I wish I would have worked on it sooner. But, better late than never. Good luck!!!!!

I also need the support. It is so much easier when you don't feel alone.

Hi, just wondering how many younger total knee replacements you've seen? I am only 40 and knee replacement is usually reserved for a little bit older patients.
