Hi, I am new to this but NOT to dieting! It is so great to actually have everything figured for me instead of keeping track by writing down foods I eat in a diary. I already lost 2 lbs in just 4 days! I would love to hear tips from others as far as exercise. I have bad knees so I am thinking of getting a recumbent bike.

Welcome to the site. Log in every day, measure your food and be honest to yourself, and it will come off. Also recommend taking starting measurements so you can compare later when the scale gets stubborn. I do neck, waist, thighs, hips, and bust. Some people also do calves and arms. Good luck.

Welcome to MFP!! There are tons of great and supportive people here! I also have bad knees so I stick to walking and The Biggest Loser Workout videos since they are lower impact. Swimming is also awesome for joint problems and can help strengthen your leg muscles. In the 2 months of walking, BL workouts & hiking hills my knees have improved significantly- and I'm almost 30 lbs lighter. Good luck on your weight loss journey!

Yoga? I do a combo of yoga and pilates. Welcome aboard and just remember to log, exercise, and drink all your water. Swimming is a good one. Water aerobics works well also. When I have a little extra cash I am going to re-join the aquatic center. I miss swimming. :sad:

Hi there! Welcome Home! You will find caring, supportive people here! Try to fit in walking, and swimming. Look for exercise videos, that is hot around here too. I just purchased the Kettleworx videos and kettlebell. Add me as a friend to monitor my progress.

Make sure to log everything you eat, drink LOTS of WATER, and be honest.

Best of luck!
