Welcome to the Weight Loss Forum, and to your new diary! You've picked an excellent place to track your journey and get great encouragement and advice.
Do you have a plan to lose the weight?
Posting B4 pics can be very motivational (It has been for me!)
Check out other folks' journals to see how they are shedding their weight, too.
To get a WL ticker, go back to the main page under GENERAL forum, and right near the top is one for NEWBIES (can't recall if that is the title, but close). I have found, with the ticker, that I must make a new one each time I reach a new weight; for some reason, mine doesn't let me edit. But it is really simple (just remember it is the BBC code you need to copy!) & only takes a minute or so.
update so far...well i did get dwn to doin bout half an hour ov cardio yesterday.proud ov myself lol!
DAY 2 - Yoohoo lost 2 pounds in a day. biggest boost i could have gotten. bring on december m ready 2 lose da rest!!!

well dats enough excersice for me today. actually might do somehts later on. will update diary tonight. probably have some weetabix before going to bed aswell
QUESTION - should i be counting calories for fruit??? because don't exactly put on weight with fruitand veg do you?? hmm
If you do not like exercise but like walking - it is perfectly possible to lose weight with walking as the only or main exercise.
I walk a lot - but lost a lot of weight when I was doing no other exercise.
You can weigh as often or as rarely as you like. Everyone can judge best what is right for them. Many people say that you should only weigh once a week - but I would be very unhappy if I had to do that. I am much happier weighing every day. We are all different.
You ask about counting calories for fruit. Really I suppose it depends on how strictly you want to count calories. I dont count calories at all. I am however calorie aware and certainly try to avoid foods that I know are high calorie.
Some fruits are fairly high in calories - e.g. banana, avacado - so I suppose if you didnt count them and really liked some high calorie fruit you could be eating more calories than you thought.
I personally prefer to try and go for a diet that I believe is balanced and moderate.
There are lots of sticky threads about the place on things like calories and nutrition. A lot of people set up fitday accounts for counting calories.

Lol!! i couldn't help myself. I got up this morning and weighed myself about 10 times. Well i think i can safely say i lost another pound wooohooo!!!!
I don't count calories either. ca't seem to get into the habit of it and like Dad said yesterday 'eat however much you want to kill your hunger but eat healthily' so that's my rule now.
I am using the pedometer today. i keep checking that it is working. It is amazing how many steps you do in soo little time. I LOVE IT!!!
So i thort i'll update now just incase i get lazy later on!
For you UK people - RHYDIAN yesterday wow!!!
lol!
DAY 4 - 2nd dec 07 - So far so gud! Daddy bought alot of fruit (bless) and Mum cuked a gud healthy balanced meal for lunch (again bless)!! Hope i don't let them down this time and make sure i reach my goal.
I havn't had anything 'naughty' today yet. like i said trying to just eat healthily whenever i get hungry. I'm going to visit a mate later today so have to fit some excercise in before then!!!
MY foo diary today
brekkie - 2 brown toast
snack - an apple (which tasted amazing)
lunch - a huge balanced meal (very healthy though) - meat, soup, salad...
thats about it so far i might walk to friends rather than take the car. will c how i feel after the excercise.
PLUS - i feel so energetic and amazing today. it is unbelievable. i always blamed my lethargicness on anemia. i fink it wos the eating habits. LMAO!
I'm back. just thort i'd update before i went to sleep. Didn't end up going to mates place so no walking :-(. neva mind.
DAY 4 - 2nd dec 07 (update)
since lunch ave had loads to eat but hoping MOST falls under healthy choice.
snacks - cereal bar (60 cals), nut mix (another thing dad bought), 3 lemon biscuits (yummy and naughty) but only bout 100 cals. A GOOD BALANCED DIET i say.
Dinner - weetabix. got late couldn't be bothered to eat but was starving lol.
Excercise - 15 mins waist workout, 15 mins weights, 100 situps.
