    Calorie deficit = weight loss. Do this consistently and you will be successful in your weight loss efforts.

    tip: buy a food scale, weigh your food and count calories accurately :smile:

    Thanks all. Do you recommend a specific online tool to help me determine what calorie count I should aim for?

    MFP will give you a calorie goal, many people here have used those goals and found success.
