Good for you, on all fronts. Quitting smoking and eating better. Congratulations on making the decision to get healthy. It's so worth the effort.

Welcome!! And good job on last week! Just don’t restrict your calories too much or your metabolism will slow down and you will actually stall weight loss. I’ve read no woman should eat less than 1200 a day?? Not sure but might want to do a little research or ask your doctor. Best wishes to you!!

Thank you for the support! @Momma I’ll have to check in to that, I’m not well versed when it comes to dieting!

Welcome to FS. While I haven't lost all my weight on FS I started out at 365 and around 200 now and not done. I have done it slowly and it has stayed off even if I yo yo a bit. The one thing I cannot do is skip logging in my meals. Let me know if I can help you towards your goal

Hello glad to have you in the group. You didn't mention water. Are you drinking enough? 96 oz daily+ is what the dietitian stated.

@Sally I will definitely take you up on that offer!
@Laura I’m trying REALLY hard to drink about a gallon of water a day.

nice job... keep up the great work... we are all here... writing food down...I have been bad at it lately... helps me see where all the calories go... some will plan their day of food by how many calories are in what they plan on eating... it also helps me make adjustments if the scale isn't so nice to me
