I’m on the website now and I can’t find it.

I’m sure it’s not quite as accurate as FitBit probably is, but I can attest that it is VERY difficult to get in 10,000 steps a day!! Even adding a 40 minute walk (about 2.5 miles) to my normal daily routine I’m still only around 8,000 steps!

She looks great and feels 20 years younger. I am going to try this and see what happens. Got to make it happen this year!

Everyone is different so it hard for me to give one set of rules when it comes to calories and nutrition. Basically, you need to burn more calories than you consume to lose weight. When I first started out I used the free online calorie and exercise journal My Fitness Pal (MFP) to figure out the amount calories I needed to consume for weight loss. By answering some questions MFP will offer a guideline on the amount of calories you should eat every day to meet your goals. I suggest you start there. There are other online tools but that is the one I know best. Check out the post I wrote to help you get the most out of My Fitness Pal. [...]

Using it helped me loose 10lbs and lower my bp by 10 points!! Great post. Thanks.

I totally agree with calories being easier than points. For me it keeps it simple, which is what I need. Thanks for your comment. – Tammy

I have previously had success with WW, and as easy as WW to follow I found myself obsessing over finding stats of recipes, products, etc. MFP is a gazillion times easier! All I need are the calories and i’m good. I don’t seem to freak out about calories like I did about points. And the free part is also pretty amazing as well.
