Hi everyone,
I'm so excited to be here. My name is Leanne. I haven't been dieting very long. This is my first time actually on a diet. So far everything is going pretty well. I've lost about 10 pounds in 7 days so it is a good start. I'm counting calories, excercising, and eating smaller portioned meals every 3-4 hours. So far i've been feeling satisfied doing this. On some days I will eat a bit more calories than usual, to keep my metabolism burning fat. However I've always been staying in my recommended 1800 calorie range. Most of the time I eat 1500, 1400.

Anyways, I'm anxious to get to know all of you!

Hi everyone!
Thanks for your replies. Yes, 10 pounds was a great start. 90 more pounds to go. I try to walk about 5 km's per day. I also play baseball and jump on the trampoline. The trampoline is the most work I think. A good 20 minutes of jumping sure does a lot. Has anyone else experienced success having several small healthy meals/snacks every 3-4 hours?
Oh, and I found I've become too obsessive with the scale. So I will weigh in once a week.

Luvja, I am from Thunder Bay, Ontario.
