I am a newbie as well. I just finished day four and I feel so hopeful! This format is easy to use and reading the message boards helps to keep me motivated because it makes me realize that we are all in this boat together! Good luck!!!:

This is day 18 for me. I am down 11 pounds, low thyroid and all. I am doing well to stay right around my daily calorie goal. I am lifting weights every other day. I also do the elliptical 4-5 times a week. Are we allowed to eat some of the extra calories we earn? I haven't been. Most days I am plus 600-800 calories due to the exercise.
