Hello everyone, figured this website would help me keep track of my activity. Especially because I forsee the little notebook I am currently using, falling apart.
I am exercising when possible due to my busy schedule (1-3 times per week, although I wouldn't call myself sedentary by any means, but I could work out more.) My main activity/strategy is counting calories and fat intake.
I have been going strong and easy for 5 days so far and have already lost 6 pounds!
My plan is to limit fat and calorie intake to 1200 Calories and 27 fat grams. I have been averaging about 1230 cal and 20 fat grams per day so far without any difficulty.
I am currently about 270lbs with a fairly muscular physique. I am trying to get down to about 190lbs.
I was wondering if anyone could give me some motivational stories and/or infromation regarding this journey I am embarking on (i.e. successes and failures, what to do and what to steer clear of)
Thanks in advance and good luck to everyone in their battles!
