Default Calorie counting helped me drop 11lbs so far! How about you?

Hi, my name is Amanda. I have recently began the great weight-loss journey! I started at 260lbs in January and I am now down to 249.2! Lots of ups and downs along the way but I am looking for motivation and some support with my challenge of reaching my goal weight of 200lbs. I live in the middle of nowhere and work constantly, but downloaded the myfitnesspal.com app on my iPhone to keep track of my caloric intake and exercise completed. It has helped me drop the 11lbs I have so far in just healthy eating choices, but I don't have the friend support on there I'd like to keep me accountable for my diary. Most of my friends are at their healthy goal weight and don't find the need of the tedious task of keeping track of their diet like I need to. If anyone wishes to join me in a lifestyle change and an eye opener on the calories contained in your daily meals look me up at myfitnesspal.com! (username: morguejunkie) I am excited to keep up this journey but have trouble with will power. I am hoping to find some support and stories like mine her on 3fatchicks.com.

I hear you! My friends are at goal, too. Some watch what they eat, but not like I do. It can be hard!

Welcome.

Congratulations on a great start ! I find counting calories to be much less tedius than having to start wearing extra large size clothing again.
