If you can do it, maybe there's hope for me.I've recently become aware of calories and exercise. Apparently someone put these 'calorie' things in my food while I wasn't looking, and now I'm not as thin as I'd like to be.  Not cool. Looking at the numbers, I'm finding that, according to the calorie counters, I eat way too much.I've always had a great metabolism. I've never been overweight in my life. I'm just under 6 feet tall (182.245 cm, or so my calculator tells me) and I weigh in at about 166lbs (75.45 kg, my calculator assures me), not heavy, but not like I was early in highschool. I'd been dreading weighing myself until I finally did it at the gym lastnight. I'm ten pounds under what I'd thought I was, which is good. I'm conserned that my metabolism might be slowing down with age and the medication I'm on.I figure that reducing my caloric intake and going to the gym 3 or 4 times a week would be a good start towards getting more healthy. What I'm confused about is quantities. I restricted myself to about 1500 calories yesterday, and in the gym I burned off 500 or so, that machines recorded. I don't really know what the numbers mean, though, and I don't have anyone to talk to about it, given that I have no health insurance and lack a primary healthcare physician.Are there websites that could educate me on these matters, or someone I could talk to who wouldn't ask for my money?- Kemrain the Out of Shape.</blockquote>
