I am very new to mfp. I just started yesterday. I had been using another app on my phone but it didn't have the features that this site has. My dh and I are both trying to loose weight and eat healthier. I have two children who I want to be a good example for. I do have some weight to lose but I mainly want to change my eating habits and get into better shape. I am tired of being so weak and feeling tired all the time. I would love to have some buddies to motivate me and share ideas with.
Have a blessed day!

On the eating healthy side, try http://www.bitemetrics.com
Scan your grocery/restaurant receipts, and it'll find anything that's bad for you. Good luck! |

Hi I'm new too, i've struggled all my life with my weight but after finding this feel very positive about my future success to lose weight - the fact this app is on my phone so with me all the time is great as i can record everything as i do it . Today I've actually struggled to get to my 1200 calories so this has been a real eye opener. Fingers crossed for us all on here battling the bulge :-)
