Consistency

Welcome to the community!

If you haven't already, read the stickies at the top of the getting started forum. Very informative and helpful.

Start small. Fill out the food diary and stay at a calorie deficit.

Eat the foods you love so you don't feel deprived.

We're here to support you through the process.

I like to make spreadsheets to see my progress I have a spreadsheet for weight, for calories in/out, and for fitness (run times, weights lifted etc). I also use the blog function here to keep me in check - I try to write once a week, and that makes me reflect on how I've been doing lately and usually motivates me to keep going. I also made a list of goal for weight loss and for fitness that I try to look at every so often.
