My biggest suggestions for you for starting out:
Track what you eat (you can find many examples of places where you can do this online in this thread WeightWatchers/Nutrimirror/other places)
Start exercising: you don't have to start out hardcore, just walking around the block everyday or riding a bike is a start
Drink plenty of water.
Stay focused. If results don't go the way you think they ought to, keep on trying anyway.
Once again, good luck. If you need any advice, support, or help, that's what this thread is for. |
I second Andrew's recommendations, especially the logging of your food intake and drinking water.
I'd also suggest that if you don't already, bring your lunches from home. YOu can control much easier what you're eating. Invest in a good kitchen scale to weigh out your portions. If you don't already eat veggies, learn to love them. They're non-caloric dense food, so you can eat larger volumes without taking in that many calories.
For snacks, 1oz of cashews, almonds or peanuts will go a long way, plus they're full of the good unsaturated fats. Beef Jerky is another good snack item. Low in fat, high in protein. Unfortunately usually very high in sodium, so stick to 1oz at a time.
I"m trying to remember the name of the exercises that use body resistance. in such a small area, you should be able to get away with doing those.
