Starting my diet today. Have never had a use for one until I moved out, and I gained 20lbs. Any tips to help me stay on track?

    Be honest with yourself about what you're eating and use the tracker to keep yourself within your calories n try and fit in regular exercise.

    Its basically common sense, eat a little bit less n move a little bit more.

    This is great site tho, everyone is so supportive.

    Feel free to add me and good luck :flowerforyou:

    Welcome! Add everything you put in your mouth to your journal - even if it's a cough drop or breath mint.

    Everyone's supportive and you'll gain many friends before long. Feel free to add me.

    Thanks (:
    Don't work or go to school, so the excersize won't be a problem.
    Also have a pool in my apartment complex, so that helps.
