Hi, my name is Angie. I joined MFP 3/1/12. This is my first attempt at sticking to a diet and actually trying to lose weight. At the beginning, I weighed 185lbs. I workout 1hr in the a.m. and at least 30 min in the afternoon, to Just dance 3 on the xbox 360 5-6 days a week. (and as soon as it gets nice outside, I'm going to start walking as well). I cut out fast food, all drinks except unsweetened tea, and I try to drink 3.2L of water a day (because thats how big my water bottle is.) Plus, I am taking Mega T green Tea with Acai. I have only been here a short time.
I know its not much, but I have lost 4 pounds since the March 1st. My question is, am I on track, or should I have lost more then that? Also, I am opened to any tips that you may have for me. Anything motivating and encouraging
