hey everyone! I have been on here for 4 days and have lost 11 pounds without starving myself. I simply switched to fruit and vegetables. If it helps you i have been snacking on baby carrots and i have also cut out regular pop and fast food entirley which is difficult since there are 3 fast food places within three blocks of where i work. Just looking for some friends to help motivate! Please add me.

    You eat only fruits and veggies and you're not hungry?

    Wow! thats a lot in 4 days, but it happens, especially if your diet change is so drastically different from what you were eating. Its like your body's sigh of relief.
    Add some clean protein in there and you are on your way! If you are exercising at all probably just fruits and veggies wont be sustainable in the long run. Eat a lot of protein. just saying

    Because fruits and vegetables supply us with more nutrition, our stomach has a way of sending signals to our brain that we are full.

    yes i have! im not joking at all. i would wake up have a poptart and 4 pieces of toast with peanut butter on them with 3 glasses of milk then i would eat mcdonalds or anything at a gas station for both of my breaks then eat when i got home then eat supper. while drinking 6 pepsis a day. to be honest i dont know how i wasnt bigger. but i know all of you can do this just change a few small things to get you started. And dont cheat. If you go over on certain categories it ok. you can look back and see what different choices you could have made. This really does help if it didnt there wouldnt be a site for it.

    I don't know why people are being so negative... I say GOOD FOR YOU and CONGRATULATIONS for deciding to make the change. Weight usually drops like nothing in the beginning, especially when the diet change is so drastic. Although it's difficult, I hope you enjoy the journey.

    Best of luck to you!!
