[quote=Anonymous]Same boat. I realized I gained 40 pounds over the last 4 years. I would start to exercise and be better about eating, but invariably something always got in the way - got sick, got injured, went on a trip, whatever minor thing would give me an excuse to stop.
So just before New Years I decided enough. Particularly realizing I gained 40 pounds over 4 years.
I’ve lost 15 pounds so far (5 weeks in now).
1. I track everything I eat. And stay under my calorie goal. I use my fitness pal to track food and calories, and Fitbit to track exercise/steps. They sync up so my fitness pal pulls in the calories I’ve burned on Fitbit.
2. Greatly decreased carbs and sugars. Increased vegetables. Stopped snacking (my big weakness). Decreased alcohol. Used to drink 1-2 glasses of wine each night. Now just one glass a week. Decreased amount of creamer in my coffee. 
3. Exercise - I use Jillian Michaels workout videos. I recommend starting with beginner shred workout video before trying anything like ripped in 30 or 30 day shred. These are all on Amazon. You can sign up for the FitFusion channel to get these.  I exercise 5 or 6 days a week. Plus go on walks.
Good luck!
