I like what you are trying to achieve here. In my experience (for what it is worth) your net calorie intake is what determines your weight. If your net calorie intake is lower than the number of calories that your body needs to maintain its current weight, you will lose weight and vice versa.
Calorie counting is the only thing that has worked for me over the years when trying to lose weight. You need to be disciplined by noting down everything that you eat and drink and how many calories are in all of these foodstuffs. If you don't do that, you'll never know if you are on the right track or not.
The best thing to do is to use an online food diary. A good free site that I quite like is called Purple Weight Loss (www.purpleweightloss.com). There are others but this is the best one I have found as it doesn't take long to complete all of your entries.
Anyway, good luck to everyone trying to shape up in 2010. Keep up the good work!
