Trying to Get in Shape

I'm trying... again.  I don't want to count how many times I've tried to "get in shape". I am hoping this time will click.  However, I think... well I hope, that this new system I have is a little more simplicity friendly.  Pretty much what I am doing is I am counting my calories using this website.  I have a daily goal for how many calories I want to consume so as to lose weight, and then if I go over that I have to work it off.  It has made me VERY conscience of what exactly I really am eating.  I got the shock of my lifetime when I found out how many calories were in my favorite coffee drinks.  Even if I ever stop this diet I don't think I'll quite be able to go back to my former eating habits (not that they were horrible, but they weren't the best).  So hopefully this will help me.  I have been religiously sticking to it and have even been working out.  Currently I am riding our exercise bike while watching a Psych episode on my bike.  I call it "Bike 'n Psych".  I know, I'm incredibly clever, you don't have to tell me.  This is my second week of it and hopefully it won't be my last.
