Hi all, i'm danni/danielle (whatever you prefer). I'm 17 years old and173 lbs at a height of 5'4. I've decided that i want to lose weight for a number of reasons, i recently realised i gained a stone, quite a shocking revelation which made me quite depressed, but i decided theres no point in being sad for myself and binging even more on food.... so i'm putting my efforts instead into my weight loss, so i can be fit and healthy and do normal activities at my age which won't cause me to be short of breath!
In the long term i'm hoping to lose 33lbs, which will make me 140lbs, an ideal weight for my height according to BMI charts. The thing is, i have no clue where to begin! :?: I know to eat less, more healthily and to exercise more... But the thing is i don't know what's a right balance. This forum seems like such a good place for help that i decided to ask here first, i would really appreciate any help given by any of you guys, because right now... i'm lost! =[ Thankyou xxx :^: |
Hi Danni
Welcome:D You will find alot of information and support here. I do weight watchers at home, meaning I don't attend meetings. Of all the diets I have tried in the past, this is the one that works for me. I lost 35 pounds several years ago and suffered the loss of my Dad and things went down hill for me after that. But I am back on since last week and I am going to get this weight off once and for good. You can check out weight watchers online for more information. I hope this helps |
hi there and welcome
this place has been an absolute lifesaver for me .... everyone is so supportive and helperful |
Hi Danni! I'd suggest checking out the food guide pyramid. That will give you a good starting point for portion size and numbers of portions of each food group to try to fit into your meal planning every day.
Welcome to the board! I'm sure you'll find some great friends here. Kara |
