    I am new to this, I have a drinking sweet tea and eating one meal a day problem, and I gain weight from it, so my thoughts to you are, eat 3 meals a day, and have 3 snacks a day, and drink water. Don't get on the scales but once a week, and do your goal 10-20 at a time, that way you don't get discouraged quickly.

    You didn't gain the weight in a week, you're not going to lose it in a week.

    Set goals not time lines.

    That's very true
  • pay attention to hunger level while eating and ask "am I still hungry?" and if not, stop eating, throw food left on plate away, or refrigerate til you are hungry again.:laugh:

    Stop grazing, when you mindlessly put something in your mouth (candy in the office, mints offered at the bank door etc etc) it all counts up!

    GET RID OF YOUR CAR AND YOUR TELEVISION Sitting in a car and/or sitting in front of the boob tube are the two most destructive things you can do to your body. You will be amazed at how easy it is to stay healthy once these demons are out of your life.

    That's how I started before joining myfitness,secret is being honest with yourself also. Another great tip is have full length mirrors so you can see for yourself what others actually see, not what you think they see.

    Figure out your TDEE and eat a little less than that.

    Fat Loss Secret
    If we eat more calories than our body requires, we will gain weight.
    If we eat less calories than our body needs, we will lose weight.

    Also........

    Don't eat back your burn exercise calories!
  • Do something - even if it is wrong.
    Waiting for the right conditions to do things right will simply postpone forever.

    Do something - even if it is WRONG.
    Drop the excuses and start taking action.

    Do something - EVEN IF IT IS WRONG!
    If you're moving in the wrong direction, make a course correction, but you ARE moving.

    DO SOMETHING - EVEN IF IT IS WRONG!
    Doing the same thing over and over again (nothing) and expecting different results is the defintion of insanity.

    64 plus grams of protein, 64 onzes of water minimum everyday. Thats the only major change I've made and lost 56lbs since 5DEC2013. Protein and water help you burn fat build muscle which burns fat.
