Tracking your calories in by keeping track of how much food you eat is definitely a good start to getting fit.
But equally important is tracking your calorie losses via exercise.
For example if you weigh 160 lbs the following 5 minute exercises will burn a chunk of calories.
Bicycling (slowly, 10 mph) - 38 calories every 5 minutes
