    wow!!! that is almost 10 pounds per month, what did you eat every day????
    I would be thrilled with 4 pds per month, about to start on this program and have no clue what to eat. would love some assistance.
    Congrats, you look amazing!!!!

    Well I've lost 41lbs in almost 6 months, or just a week shy of 6 months. I think I've averaged 8lbs a month or so. A little more in the beginning when I was at an obese BMI, and less than a pound a week now that I'm at a normal BMI. I eat everything I did before, just less. I eat chocolate, pasta, breads, meats, etc... just less! And I try to incorporate fruits & veggies everyday, which I used to not do. I do not use a food scale, but I recommend getting one. I just eyeball my food. I have my goal set at 1350 NET calories per day.

    On average, I do not work out more than 30mins per day. I workout from home typically using www.fitnessblender.com. Youtube has some great workout routines. I do HIIT cardio or tabata 15-30mins 2X week, Yoga or Pilates 1-2X week, & bodyweight training 1-2X week. I focus more on my eating than working out. I just don't want to kill myself daily working out & get burned out.

    Good luck! Just log accurately & daily, workout moderately & you WILL lose weight! :)

    Thank you! It took almost 6 months to lose 41lbs. I logged daily & ate everything I used to, just less! I believe everything in moderation & I do not restrict myself from anything. Well, in the beginning I gave up diet pop, but that's the only thing I've ever restricted. Weight loss is a marathon, not a sprint. You can do this!

    In 2012, I was on here & lost 20lbs as well & gained all the weight back & then some! You can do this! I am determined to keep the weight off this time! I think the support from MFP friends has been vital for my success!
