Any good advice from you lovely people out there?

Hey Cammi,
Best of luck, even if you aren't following a 'diet' per se, it might be useful in your case to try a food journal for a while, because sometimes at the end of the day you can feel quite virtuous about how little junk you've eaten, but when you actually look at it all in black and white, you can see other items you could have cut back on, this can help when they crop up again...it's also good to know how many calories approx you consume per day, as, in order to lose 1lb per week ( this differs a bit for all of us) you need to take our more than 3'500 calories that week, or 500 a day.
In your case you might try and cut back by around 2 or three hundred, and then burn an extra 200 or so by increasing excercise!
Starting again!
