Just found out about this site

Hello, I just found out about this site yesterday.  I've always struggled with my weight and I am now seriously looking to lose and keep weight off.  This site seems to be a very good way to keep track of what you eat.

I'm also looking to meet new people who are in the same boat as me.  I'm in my mid 20's and need to lose 30+ lbs. 

same here. female, 25, 30 lb goal. What a fluke finding this site. It came with searching for a long time for a good site.

Welcome to both of you.. I think the majority of people on this site found it by fluke.. I sure did :) Hope you reach all your goals and have fun doing it! Good Luck!!

Welcome to CC!  I found it almost a year ago while looking for an online calorie chart, and I'm so glad I did! 

I hope to see both of you often.

I found this site yesterday while online looking for a calrie chart, I love it already and am really hoping that it helps me get to the weight I want to be.  Good luck to you. 

macsnag and kbeeps and boomer, welcome! I'm in my twenties and have about thirty pounds to go too. I love this site, I'm sure you will too!

hey guys, the main thing is to keep coming back.  You should really use the built-in features for logging weight and food items.  And be faithful -- lying doesn't make you skinnier.

I found this site through the Army.  My husband is in Iraq.  Thanks to this site, I've cut down my calories from 4000-5000/day to 1000/day and I have lost 6 pounds since Jan 1st.  I'm 26, female, and I need to lose a total of 60 pounds.

this morning i wondered how many calories was in my breakfast... so i went to yahoo and typed in "bagel w/cream cheese" and this site popped up... i just found it today and am way excited about it!!

i've set myself up and am motivated to really keep track of what i eat as best as i can so i can start to make changes...

there's a lot of encouraging and motivated folks on here - it's good to know we're all working towards a healthy goal!

good luck everyone!

this is the best site ever, it has really kept me motivated!

claireaine, have you found that you have lost weight in the year that you have been using this site?

wow, I can't believe how many people have already visited my post.  I'm so excited to meet new people.  Just a few mins ago I didn't want to go exercise.  Now that I've read these post and had some encouraging words, I'm pumped and my husband and I are going to go for a walk.  meredmondson, my husband has been to Iraq too.  We werent married at the time but pretty much engaged.  Now his brother is over there.  It's tough knowing that someone you love and care about is so far away but I'm so glad to hear that this site is already working so well for you.  That gives me a lot of encouragement.

I just found out about this site today. Our newspaper carried an article that was first reported in the Minneapolis Star Tribune about websites to help with your diet.  This site along with several others were listed.  I've got several good sites bookmarked since I went on Weight Watchers a few years ago. I've just put back on 20 pounds, so it is back on program again.  This site seems like it will be very helpful, since I will be able to figure out my points from the nutrional information.

This is a great site!!! I found it a week ago and have lost 5 pounds this week. Its really motivated me to stick with my diet and excercise. I'm 23 and need to lose about 50 pounds but my goal for now is 36 lbs. I'm from the mid-west where its getting really cold.

 Cool to meet everyone, Kristin

Another newbie here!

I'm from Victoria, BC Canada, 37, happily married mom of 2.

On Jan 2 I bought a scale and a gazelle trainer.  And actually used both of them LOL.  I need to lose 60lbs.  I had my weigh-in this morning, and I'm down 3.2lbs.

I found this site looking for a calorie/exercise logger.  Wow.  It's a marriage made in heaven :P
