Hi There ShootingStar!
You might want to check out our "Calorie Counters" forum...great info for those of us who are watching the calorie counts of what we eat.
We also have miscellaneous support groups, the 20-somethings, and both the 100 lb club (for those who are on their way to losing or have lost 100 lbs or more) and the 300+ club. Any/All of these spots would be great places for you to jump in and get to posting, so find one or several.
Can't wait to get to know you better!
