    What can you improve on; I definitely need to stop being so "snacky" when I get home from work! That's definitely been keeping me from my goals. Also, I aim to workout 1 hour (45 cardio, 15 strength), 5 days/week.

    Age: 26
    Height: 5'10.5"

    I am going to give this a try, even though I set an earlier goal of only losing a pound a week since I am attempting to add regular weight training sessions into my exercise routine. I am cautious about relying on the scale, instead of inches lost, since I expect there will be a little bit of a rebound of weight as I add muscle. But, what the heck, let's see how close I can get to the 5% goal.
