Any dieting tips for a beginner?
I just started with dieting about a week ago, and I don't know a lot! I've been drinking a lot of water and teas, and eating some prunes for the fiber, but I'm not sure what else to do to trick my body into losing more weight, or to think it wants less.

Do you think this is right?
So I love my Dunkin Donuts "iced coffee", I type it with quotation marks because really I'm not a HUGE fan of coffee, sometimes I need the caffeine, and I do like the taste of it the way *I* order it. So I order a M french vanilla with 4 creams and 7 sugars, sometimes 5 creams and 7 sugars. Today I got 4 creams, 7 sugars.…
