Hi! I'm new to this.

Just stay with it and don't beat yourself up if you mess up, miss a day or don't see results right away. Take the long term approach that this is a lifestyle and not a diet or quick program and you'll do much better.

My best advice is what you are already doing. First you are calling it a lifestyle which is what it is. Second you are coming here to MFP. Since I started logging my food and fitness I've started losing weight again. My next best advice is always have a food/fitness plan for the day. It's harder to sabotage if you have a plan. Keep plenty of healthy foods on hand. My pantry/fridge/freezer always contain a multitude of fresh veggies and fruits, plain non-fat Greek yogurt, hard boiled eggs, string cheese, edemame, jerky, various nuts/seeds, beans/legumes, avocados, and healthy soups. Keep up the good work! You can do it.
