and....stay off the scale for the first couple weeks. No point in getting on the scale daily. You will have ups and downs daily depending on the amount of water your body is holding and of course waste matter. Here are a couple bits of info

1. 1 lb = 3500 calories. Losing wt is a math game. To lose 1 lb you need to create a 3500 calorie deficit. It's a slow process creating new habits. Don't worry about losing wt too fast or it won't stick. Most diets do not work because they do not establish new habits. You'll need to establish new eating habits. Plus the word "diet" is a negative word. It contains the word "die" within it smile

2. Eat less, move more, drink lots of water and take a good multivitamin.
