    Hello and welcome!
    Sounds like you've got a great plan. I too follow a low calorie, somewhat low carb plan and it's fabulous for me.
    Look forward to 'seeing' you around. Lots of strength to you!

    I am new to this calorie counting as well. Weight Watchers does not work for me . I try to stay between 1500 to 1800 calories. I hope it works.

    Woo hoo! I started out on my own counting calories, slowly started changing how I ate (otherwise, how the heck can you stay on target!) found this stie and I've done a 180 on eating healthy. It's amazing how much better I feel!

    Hi Liz. Welcome.

    Sounds as though you have a solid plan to start. One nice thing about calorie counting is that if you aren't getting results, you can tweak your program to fit your needs.

    Good luck.
