Hello!
I am jumping on the exercise/diet wagon on January 1. Having broken and crushed some bones, the exercise is a challenge. This week I am doing my fasting blood work and will be working on those numbers also.
The diet end of it is going to involve vegetables and fruits for breakfast, lunch and work snacks. A sensible meal at night. (might have to cut out the foie gras)
How do you feel about the BMI scale?
Good luck to you, IMGreat!

Scale at Dr's office said 264.8 lbs .. YIKES!!!
More motivation to make my goal. I have also included a few friends at work. So... I will gorge on the rich holiday foods and then get to the task. :D
What kind of phone do you have Great?
It is just a phone, that is allQuote:

Ah, if you had a smart phone I was going to recommend a calorie counter app.
I will be keeping fat grams to 20 or less/day.
Good luck. I don't think I could take the strain of a diet and exercise.

I try to keep fat calories below 20% and don't rely on set number of grams. Nailed it right at 20% today. That means plenty of energy and no hungry feeling.

Those 3 chicken breast samiches were eaten every two hours starting at 10am. With my Droid I can scan bar codes on food packages and most restaurants are listed in the app. I also add in any exercise and daily activities that can offset any food intakes. This has resulted in slow steady weight loss. 3 inches in my waist in as many months.

On a positive note. The oncologist is happy with the ct scan and asked if I wanted to "stretch out" my appointments. I was thinking he was going to say 6 months or so.... no, 4 months with another scan scheduled. grrrrrrr !!!
Keep on keeping on!
