starting yourself a diary is the best place to get support...

the ticker information you will find here

the best places to begin your weight loss journey is to sign up for a site like FitDay - Free Weight Loss and Diet Journal which gives you a place to record your calories for the day - unless you know what you are currently eating, it's tough to make a correction to it.

good luck and welcome

Hi Georgie! Watching my calories made my weight drop so fast in the beginning! Trying to stay between 1,300 and 1,600 calories each day seemed to keep me sastified (after I got used to it) and I can get my nutrition! I track everything in fitday.com and have had a lot of success with that

good luck!!

Hi Georgie!!

I'm also 23 and I started at 269lb. I'm currently at 249lb. I'm hoping to be down to around 180 by my birthday (oct 27th). Since we have very similar goals, I'd be more than happy to be your diet buddy!

PM me if you're interested
