    Make a plan is a good place to start. You should do that :)

    The basic science behind weight loss is calories in vs calories out.

    If I told you you could eat whatever you want within reason, and still lose weight, surely you would like the sound of that right?

    The best advise I can give you is eat healthy but enjoy a treat, If that's what gets you through, so be it.

    Exercise should be viewed as a means to get healthier and feel fitter. Weightless is just something that occurs as part of that process.

    Today I ate a sausage and bacon sandwich and don't have a shred of guilt, due to the fact I worked out.

    But he also shouldn't feel guilty for eating it if he didn't go over his daily calories!

    I found making a plan worked, never feel quilty for having a treat.
