That's a wonderful start! Welcome to the site! Just make sure you are also consuming less calories than you burn in a day!

Will power is tough, but that's what we're here to help with! Tell us more about your goals, if you plan on incorporating exercise into your plan, etc

Re: just began the battle

Welcome, support is all around you here! just remember to stay in the moment...don't try to set unrealistic goals. When I started, I never even planned on losing weight, I was trying to drink more water and get it better shape to be healthier. Once the weight started coming off I found it easier and easier to restrict my diet more. I ended up losing 88lbs. Now I'm back in the game (after recently having a baby) and I am using the same tactics.

Just thought I would offer up a little advice.

We wish you all the best! I think that getting rid of all the unhealthy food and stocking up on the good stuff helps. Thats part of my game plan too! How much did you want to lose?
