Hi. My name is Eric and I am from Cincinnati. I take it that Monday's are a big sign-up day for newbies here. haha. Well, I finally got motivated to seriously do something about my weight. I did an online search for diet journals and this is the first one I picked. It looks like it will provide me with all I need so I will give it a try.

My biggest issue is binge eating in the evening. I eat a very light breakfast and lunch, but then just eat like crazy at dinner and after. I am a member of a gym and go about 4 times a week doing light cardio, but I could stand to pick up the pace there and get more into weight training.

I'm looking forward to being a member of the site and have a positive attitude going into this.

    Eric,

    I don't know your schedule but please consider making breakfast BIG. I am talking egg whites, salsa, a little cheese, fresh grapefruit...are you feeling me? Just my 2 cents.

    Might be a good idea. I typically only drink a can of V8 for breakfast.
