Hi! I am a SAHM and am looking for a buddy to work with. I mostly count calories and work on not eating junk food. I hate to exercise so I need someone to keep me on my toes. I have lost 4 lbs so far and have about 46 to go.

WELCOME!
I have to tell you that I clicked on your name and checked out your "public veiwer." I, too, live on a dairy farm...almost 400 head of cows. Plus I was born & raised in "Newberg" Oregon. LOL! Sounds like we should be "sisters!"

Four pounds is GREAT! All you have to do is keep moving. Moving is exercise and most people do not see it that way. I do. When I do my housework, man, I sweat! I LOVE to sweat.... ....It makes me feel as though I am burning da' fat! LOL!! So, don't concentrate too hard on the exercise thing; walking, bending, anything that allows you to be physical is exercise. Now, for the motivation part......move it, move it, MOVE IT!!!!!!! Drink water and watch your salt, sugar and carb intake. Most of all, watch your portions...that's where I gained alot of weight in the first place...I ate and ate until I couldn't eat anymore, then ate again.

That is a lot of cows.We only have 100 milking. Thanks for the encouragement. I love to sweat to. I usually feel the like the weight is dripping off of me. I wish it was that easy. I had a pretty good weekend.
I need learn when it is cold to drink my water. I tend to not drink as much.
Thanks for replying I wasn't sure if I was doing something wrong or not. I didn't get any response for a while. Well, I got to go and get my son up for school.

Hi there and welcome. There's a whole section for calories counters under General Diet Plans. We'd love to see you there. And there's lots to learn and motivate in the exercise sections. Have fun!
