Default It's the little choices you make every day.

This is the place for intros, so I will introduce myself.
I have been reading the threads for a few days now. There is so much inspiration here. What a great support place.

I had been avoiding the scale for a while because I didn't want to know, but we applied for passports and I had to know. I wasn't surprised but I wasn't happy either. My starting weight was 198.

The plan I am following is my own. I've lost weight before eating sensibly, following the food guide to be sure I get a good variety of foods each day. I make sensible choices based on calories, fat and fiber but I don't count calories. I aim to eat three meals and three snacks a day. Right now I'm working on eating right, and will add structured fitness in later although I'm trying to put more movement into my day ( biking with the kids, etc).

See you around the site!

All the changes you listed sound like "lifestyle changes" and thus will help you keep it off. Congrats and good luck!
