About

Calories play a role in the balancing act that is your weight. The key to losing weight is to burn more calories than you consume. You can achieve this by consuming fewer calories than you need and increasing the number of calories you burn through physical activity.

You do not, however, have to go it alone. For support, consult your doctor, your family, and your friends. Consider whether this is the right time and whether you’re prepared to make the essential changes. Plan wisely as well: Consider how you’ll respond to circumstances that put your determination to the test and the inevitable slight setbacks.
