it's day 1

OK, world ... I have made the commitment to lose all of my extra poundage by
the end of the year (or earlier, which would be highly preferable to me),
through calorie restriction and exercise. I'm using fitday for tracking all of
this.

I can't wait to fit into 90% of the clothes in my closet again, among countless
other benefits.

Good news to come, I hope.

Well, I do try to curb the carbs these days, but only moderately. It's
still a calories in vs. calories out thing, so I'll always be watching
calories!

Good luck. Do you have a name? Are you female or male? What's your age?

I want to be encouraging, but you're making two mistakes I feel
compelled to warn you about, just because I suspect you might be more
successful if you bear these in mind.

First of all, you're hot to lose pounds. You should be trying to lose
fat. Be very careful about losing muscle. I recommend you get your
body fat tested and do resistance training (i.e., weight-lifting) and
try to get enough protein so that you don't lose muscle that you need to
feel energetic, burn calories and keep you from injuries. You might
enjoy reading Covert Bailey's "The Ultimate Fit or Fat" to learn more
about what I'm talking about, or spend some time reading
http://www.stumptuous.com/weights.html.

The other problem is that you've set a weight-related goal and I
frequently find that people stop making the effort once it becomes
apparent that they aren't on a linear track to lose the weight at the
right rate. The fact is, fat loss is a process. I needed to spend time
conquering my various issue that got me fat to begin with, and sometimes
I lost a lot of weight and sometimes I didn't lose any. I'd prefer to
see you having a behavior based goal, like, "I will go four weeks in a
row working out at least five times each week" or "I will eat clean six
days in a row" or maybe a training goal like, "I will run a 5K by Labor
Day".

Over the past two years I've lost 70 pounds, bit by bit, in fits and
starts. I really think fat loss ought to be measured in retrospect, not
charted out into the future. Even when things were going really well I
was only losing 5 pounds a month. That's nothing if you've got 70
pounds to lose. But do it over and over, month and month and you've
done something sustainable.

Good luck.
