Hi onecoolzoe,
First off, congrats on your commitment to loosing weight. If you're looking for a plan to help you lose weight, i'd recommend weight watchers. I've been doing it consistently myself for about two months now and have lost nearly 25 pounds. I recommend it not just because of my success, but because it's really easy. You don't have to worry about counting calories because the point system does it for you. if you're like me and like to avoid math you'll appreciate that the numbers you have to deal with are smaller, so it's more manageable. Also, at least for me, it's done a great job helping me choose which foods to eat, yeah i can have those bacon cheddar potato wedges from jack in the box, but that's about all i'd get to eat all day. So, that's my ode to weight watchers. I hope you find something that works for you and good luck.
