    don't give up! it will come off eventually! My weight loss was super slow, some months nothing and at the most ever 1.5 lbs a month. I never thought it was going to be so hard just to lose 20 lbs but it took a whole year. I wanted to give up so many times as i was wanting faster results like everyone else was getting but i am glad i didn't give up. I went from a juniors size 11 to a 3 . I am very happy with my size now! :)
  • All calories are not made equal: 100 calories of processed food will not give the results that 100 calories of fruit and veggies will. For me, I couldn't lose weight until I added tons of veggies into my daily diet. Once you see results, you'll be motivated to keep right on eating them. I exercise moderatey and drink @ least 48 oz of water or plain hot tea daily. GOOD LUCK!!! :-)

    Thanks for replying! I am guilty of eating too much rubbish and not enough vegetables so I shall try and change that.... Got to be patient too.
