Trying to lose 60 pounds!

[ucandoit]

Hello everyone!

Glad I found this great forum. Hopefully I can get some support from other members. I'm trying to lose about 60 pounds. I just started jogging everyday of the week, but don't really know what else to do (I'm pretty cluless when it comes to sculpting the body).

I've already started to eat healthier, I don't drink soda or eat fast food. And try and stay away from sweets.

Tips would be greatly appriciated. I'd love to hear what everyone else is doing to drop weight.

Look forward to hearing from you.
