    Welcome to the community! <3

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

    Losing weight happens when you're in a calorie deficit. I've lost 30 pounds without any exercise. Go to the gym if you want to, but know exercise alone won't lead to a loss.

    Buy a food scale. Weigh everything you eat and log into the food diary.

    Good luck with your journey!
  • Life giving journey you are placing yourself on! Be kind to yourself. Know it is going to take a long time but that is OKAY! Enjoy the gift you give yourself with every healthier choice you make. Baby steps lead directly to success...its just the scenic route! Have Fun discovering what you are capable of!!!!!
