    I started losing weight in the middle of August, so it's been about 6 months now. My tips would be to religiously weigh and record everything you intake, it all adds up quickly. And don't deny yourself foods you crave, that tends to end up leading to disaster; instead allow yourself to have it, just limit how much you have.

    One more thing, if you know you're going to a restaurant (fast food or otherwise), look up their nutrition menu before you go there and decide what you're going to eat before leaving. It makes making healthy choices a lot easier. Not to mention most fast food joints will let you substitute their fries for a side garden salad for around 60 calories (without the dressing).
