@kdrahms2593 Nothing to add as @diannethegeek has it all laid out.

It might seem like a lot of reading but well worth it.

Log everything, plan night before, prepare your food at wkends for the week. Eg I poach to chicken breasts on the wkends, have packed chicken for salads etc for the week easy.

Only Weigh yourself every 4 weeks

Keep your diet simple and clean(balancrd protein + carbs + fats)...workout like crazy....drink plenty of water...rest and you'll get anything you want from your body;)

Log every BLT (bite, lick, taste), keep track of your weight, drinks lots of water and try to get in 10,000 steps per day at least. Keep it realistic. Don't try to copy anyone else in their weight loss journey and make your journey your own!!

Feel free to add me as a friend!
