    It absolutely can be done. Just take it a week at a time. You will be surprised how fast the time goes and before you know it the weight will be off! :) And the best part?? You don't have to starve and suffer to get there! Bonus!! ;)

    first of all congrats to all of you! so you have all lost your weight just by following the calories that this site gave you? did you do anything else? how much do you excercise? sorry for all the questions but i'm just curious. i just joined on 4/3/08. so obviously i'm not seeing drastic progress, but i feel like i'm getting nowhere and i really want to lose by summer (swimsuit:cry: ) even if it is 5 lbs.

    I actually started out doing ediets, which gave me a caloric intake of around 1600-1700 calories. It gives you a meal plan etc. I wasn't always following that so much but was using the meal plan as a guideline for how many calories per meal, etc. Eventually I realized that I wasn't using ediets the way it was meant to be used and was only using the nutrition tracker and realized I could do that for free!!! So, I found this site and have been using it for awhile and having the same results as on ediets. I still use some ediets recipes..but all in all it has been counting calories, exercise, etc that has helped me shed 75 lbs so far. I measure EVERYTHING. Even down to a tsp of mustard. It just keeps me honest.

    Now I eat around 1500 calories, a little more if I exercise well.

    Thank you.

    I have to admit that I am/was a hairstylist so my hair is always changing! What picture did you like, I can tell you what the cut is so you can have someone do it for you!
