    I wish I could do this!!! I have hunger problems. I'll do well for a few days and then I'll be hungry again as if I hadn't eaten for days. :sick:

    I think this is about blood sugar levels, have u spoken to your doctor about your diet? Mine helped me to work out why i way getting really hungry at times.
  • I'm in! Getting married Jan 5th, so its perfect timing! I'm assuming its 20 lbs from today, not total since we started right?? Just clarifying :)
    Aww you're getting married congratulations :) and yes, 20 pounds from today!!

    I'm in. 20 by Christmas? Ya... I got this.

  • As Malicent said the hunger games... I have the exact same problem as you do, and water doesn't help. I think you can do it if you put your mind to it!

    Try more protein! That helps me.
    I will have to try this, thank you :)
  • I'm doing the exact same goal! We're going on a trip (to Costa Rica) and I want to feel good about putting on a swimsuit! lol. MyfitnessPal is an awesome place to start and finish with your goals :D

    Nice! Enjoy your trip when you go! :) I agree, I'm so happy I heard about this website. Now I'm debating on ordering a fitbit.

    You will love the fitbit! But wait for the new one. It's called fitbit one. It will be bluetooth whereas the one I have has to be near its little antenna station. The new one will sync with your smart phone by bluetooth. Thinking about buying that one.

    I also have a nike fuel bracelet. Like it, too; but not as much as the fitbit.

    Hi guys! I'm definitely up for it. I'm getting married in early february so it's a great goal - I need to fit into that amazing wedding gown :D
    Only problem is I'm going on holidays for 5 weeks argh. I'll avoid junk food until 30 sept (when I head overseas)
  • If you drink more water it does help control your hunger... I drink at least 5-7 bottles a day and it helps me a lot.
