Need Advice

Hi, there is loads of advice about weight loss here in these forums. Take the time to read through the stickies.
There really is no secret to weight loss. It's a matter of eating healthy less fats, sugars and processed foods and exercising more. It really helps to weigh food where you can and to write down every single thing that you eat or drink.
If you really have no idea about how to lose weight then it might help to join a weight watchers group. I learnt so much at the meetings.
If you have any particular question ask it here and somebody will come in and help you.

Things to do 5-6 days in a week:
1) Go out for jogging/morning walk .This is must.
2) Join GYM or Yoga if you have time. Follow instructions of your instructor.
3) Swim if you can
4) Play any outdoor game if you can
Things to avoid:
1) Sleeping late night
2) High calories and fat, oily foods
3) Over eating
Follow above points regularly and get the results after a month.
Best of luck

Actually, I'd like to change what the previous poster said.
Things to avoid
1) Over eating
Yup. The other stuff is good (exercise but you definately don't need to go to any gym for that) but for weight loss, what you eat is much more important. Weight loss comes down to calories in vs calories out. At your weight, your should be (about) eating 2041 a day to maintain. So if you want to lose a pound, aim for around 1500. Do this slow and steady.
First advice? Record everything you eat for one week. Be dead honest. This way you can look and see what can be avoided or what choices can be a better choice. Check out fitday.com for help on calorie counts. We have a nice diary section that you can use to record.

I like this.
To add-on, find something you like to do that is active. It makes exercising something you will look forward to.
Some examples I have seen around here -
Early morning/Late night walks/runs
Wii Fit
DDR
Sports
Good luck OP
Hi, Thanks for this suggestion, I am also new to this and have been reading through the website forums. I always feel guilty in the morning when I don't get up and go for that morning exercise, but starting the day with something that relates to weightloss might help motivate me so that I can go later in the day. After work, etc.
