First week coming to an end and looking for a support network! :)

Miss_sapphire11

hi!

I am finishing my first week of calorie counting and losing weight. So far I am killing it! I just need to not get side tracked or fall off the wagon. I am set to 1.5lb weight loss and somehow I have managed to lose 4lbs my first week! Apparently not eating crap all the time really changes things..

I am the mom of a 2 year old and he definitely eats healthier than me, I got into the habit of quick convenient meals when he started walking and I just started packing on the pounds. Not being able to fit into any of my summer clothes was the last straw for me. I have 15lbs to lose. I want to get healthier so I can have a second child and I am not willing to eat poorly while pregnant so it is time to change my lifestyle

I am looking for any friends also on the weight loss journey that want to share support and motivation! So far so good but the accountability helps a lot!

Hello, thanks for adding me back! Looking forward to getting to know you better

You're doing great, keep up the good work, but keep in mind that the rate at which you lose is going to slow down. I'm not being negative at all, I've done it (a few times), and that's just what happens, so don't get discouraged. 1-2 lbs a week is a realistic goal, even if I haven't been able to stick with it for quite some time now I'm sure you'll do great and lose those 15 lbs in no time!

Thanks everyone!

Welcome and good start. Some of my key learnings have been, don't beat yourself up too bad if you fall off the wagon once or twice, just get right back on it again. Also, congrats on the first week weight loss. On the flip side, and eventually there will be a flip side, don't get overly discouraged if you have a week of great dieting and don't lose any pounds that week. It happens, and as long as you keep going the weight will come off.

I do have a tendency to get discouraged when weight stalls. I tried to head it off this time by having my fiancé hide my scale last night lol now I can't weigh myself for a few days, if I even see a tenth of a pound in the next few days off I'll be happy. I know it won't keep going at this speed and I am not looking forward to when it stops or goes backward but I am going to give it my all!
