Hi , My name is Lyn and I am trying to loose some weight. I am sure most of you are. Thanks in advance for all your posted tips. This is my first day so I am just adjusting to the reduced fat intake and counting calories (I had no idea of how they add up!). I know it will be work but I am looking to make it fun! Till my next hopefully (lighter post) here's to you!

    Welcome :smile:

    I love to give tips and they are:
    1) Log it BEFORE you eat it, this can help you make wise choices :tongue:
    2) Weigh and/or measure everything, my eye was much larger than actual amounts :noway:

    Wishing you much success :drinker:

    Thanks so much for your very helpful tips! I am so new to this kind of site but already I feel a "kinship" with you all. I feel I am not doing this alone and look forward to the journey knowing you are all there!
    Cheers!
