Welcome Akash - first check your BMI and with that take note of your suggested calories per day - I tend to try and keep to the lower end unless I have to go somewhere where there usn't much 'helpful' food and secondly keep a record of everything you eat each day - I can convince myself I've not eaten something as soon as the taste leaves my mouth - good luck

Welcome to the forum Akash_Ghosh it can seem a bit overwhelming but you will get the hang of it, I am not very good with technology but I have got my head round it. I even posted a profile picture!

Take a look at the Pinned Posts section, to the right of your screen (bottom, if you're using a mobile) and have a look at the Welcome Newbies thread.

Look at the Topics section beneath that, for posts that could answer any questions you may have. Consider joining any, or all, of our challenges, as they're fun and motivating.

Join us for the Monday Group weigh-in. If you follow Lowcal and Moreless (our very approachable site Admins), you'll be notified when they post the threads. The latest weigh-in thread can always be found in the Events section, to the right of the home page.

Be active on the forum, as that's where we exchange ideas and get our daily dose of motivation and inspiration.

I wish you luck and determination.
