Welcome!! There's no need to be scared, although many of us were in the beginning. Will this work for me? Will I be able to do it?
Well, the answer to both is a resounding YES.
My main suggestions when you're first starting:
Measure and weigh yourself beforehand
Drink tons of water
Tuck extra packets/bars in your purse, your car, your desk, etc. so you don't get caught hungry and with nothing to eat
Stock up on allowable snacks like pickles, celery, Jell-O, sugar-free Popsicles
Order some Ready to Drink shakes; they're invaluable when you're on the run
Check out the Lean Cuisine section for ideas on preparing the packets to your liking
And finally, buy a good belt because your pants are going to be falling down before you know it!!
