    Welcome to this great place! Logging every day is key, it really keeps you accountable. You are welcome to add me, and look at my food journal and see what I fix. I really do think I eat a fair amount, but its all pretty clean, not a lot of pre-packaged foods, (except today when I had 2 pieces of pizza for 310 calories). You can do this!

    Two key things that helped me were getting a quality heart rate monitor (HRM) and this app so your halfway there already. Be brutally honest when logging food and go by the HRM when figuring calories burned. The calorie burn indicator on machines are usually "WAY" over estimated so don't go by that. And don't get too hung up on the number on the scale. It's just a number. Go by how you feel and how your clothes fit. In the beginning you will probably drop weight fast then as your body gets used to the changes of exercise and diet things will slow down. When this happens, and it will, keep going and don't be afraid to change up your training routines.

    Good luck and add me if you want. I always try to give positive feed back.
