    Your current and end goal aren't too different from mine and I'm 22 from England. I started at 183.5 just about 4 weeks ago so I'm loving the results. It's a great diet if you can stick to it ... I let myself have a blow out last week for valentines and still maintained my weight. xxx

    welcome meme and niques! I over the last year I have been working with a trainer, who takes it slow, but encourages all the way! I also have been journaling on and off during that time. When I journal on this site, it is amazing how quickly the weight just comes off! It's a great site! If you and or your dr think the numbers are not correct, you can customize it to what you need or want! :happy: Hope to see that your doing well. I am wanting to drop my last 10 lbs!! Here's to keeping going!

    Welcome!

    I agree that journalling is great - I don't do it enough, but find that it can be a great substitute for snacking! Keeps my mind and hands busy.

    I have found this site to be wonderful. Where before I would have just given up because I had a bad day, this site keeps me going. Slow, but sure...

    How's the weather in the Caribbean? And in England?

    Welcome. I tried a couple other sites, but for me this one was my Magic Feather (love those Disney movies from my childhood)! This site has kept me on track and motivated me to persevere. I'm able to easily record what I eat here, and to even check foods before eating them to try to stay within my caloric goal. My weight loss has been slow and at some times plateaus, but I like losing slow and steady. Like you, I started at about 173 pounds, but now when I step on my scale and see 153, it gives me a moment to celebrate. (I do step on my scale every morning, instead of once a week, and sometimes it's a little up, sometimes it's the same, and then there's those woohoo days when it is down a little.) Originally I had hoped "dreamed" I could get down to 150, but didn't believe it was possible. Now that I'm 153 pounds, I have reset my goal to 140. Most tables say I should be about 135 at the most, but I'm a country girl from German stock and want to be realistic. Anyway, I'm sending you a big Illinois welcome! I'm a 65 yr old grandma and if this site can help me, then imagine what it can do for you young ladies (and gents)!!! :O) EYD
