Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself. I started MF last Monday and I have lost 10 pounds!! :D I have ALOT to lose - minimum 100 lbs. I've been thin, heavy, thin, heavy and then just HEAVY! I have tried them all - you know them....WW, Jenny, Nutri, Atkins, etc. I did very well with WW but lifestyle changes (hubby getting disabled, having to go back to work instead of being home with my little ones, sole provider, etc.) created stress which created weight which kept weight on. Now at almost 47, I can't seem to lose it the same old way.

A friend from church recommended this after I asked how she lost her weight (she has lost something like 35 or 40 pounds and looks fantastic). She sent me to this site and the rest is history.

So far I haven't had any real issues - other than finding out what I like and don't like with the products. I look forward to reading the posts - past and present - and getting to know you all.

Happy shaking!!!

Thank you. Cool weight chart you have there. When I have time, I'm going to have to add that to my profile. How do you add that?

Do a seacrh for Weight Tickers on this forum and you will find posts that will give you the directions on how to add them. It's great to be able to see your progress. And don't forget to join Roll Call every Sunday with your progress report. Let me know if you have any trouble with the tickers.

Welcome Michelle,
You've found the right spot. Lots and lots of us are always here to help you out and keep you "on the straight and narrow". As you progress on program your tastes will change so what wasn't your favorite today may be your favorite tomorrow. :D Check out "lean Cuisine" on the forum -- you'll get lots and lots of ideas there. Don't worry you and the exta weight will be parting ways. . I have a friend who is still losing along and thus far has parted with 120 pounds -- forever. It has opened up a whole new life for her!! Get ready to go shopping!!!
I'll be watching for you.
