Hi, I am new to calorie counting so to speak after years of "trying" to lose weight. Im in my middle 40's and have been overweight pretty much forever. I have tried various methods to lose weight but to no avail.
I guess the part I struggle with is #1 I am doing this alone (ie: no meetings of any sort however my husband is my biggest supporter) and #2 I feel like I have no control and I tend to eat way over my calorie goal for the day. I am also a carbaholoic too. I do like salads and fruit but most of my food is bread type or breaded. Not sure how many calories Im suppose to have daily but I saw a post on here that suggested for 200 weight ranges start with 1800. I also struggle to just get through one day much less day after day of calorie counting.
Any suggesstions would greatly be appreciated.
