    Wow... I don't understand all the negativity.
    So what if he's lying (which I can't imagine why he would...), it's no skin off anyone's back.
    And if he's telling the truth, then he's made great headway into a 164 lb. journey.
    Either way, no one comes to this website to be shat on. Let's all be positive and support eachother!

    I agree, if you have nothing nice to say then say nothing at all?!?! Although you are full and eating well, I wouldn't limit yourself too low on calories especially when you have a lot to lose. But this is your journey, not mine! Best of luck!! :)

    Um....I don't buy it.

    X2
    I don't know how much you had to lose, but even if it was a lot I would be skeptical. If it's the truth then I would say your taking things way to fast.

    Edited to add, I didn't realize how much weight you had to lose. The 8 pounds in the last week threw me. I apologize. I saw a TON of threads that day about unhealthy weight loss habits, and I just assumed you must be doing something like that. I think part of the problem with (some) people getting *****y on here, is they see people doing something unhealthy, try to help, and then get argued with for said advice. Eventually you get kind of pissy. Regardless I shouldn't have taken my thread grumpiness out on you, and I apologize.

    :happy:

    Has no one ever heard of "if you can't say something positive don't say anything at all"??? Nothing like being called a liar by people who are supposed to be supporting you!!!

    That is great.... CONGRATULATIONS!!!! :flowerforyou:
    I swear I'm exercising too much. I burn 1,000 calories 3 times a week and the rest of the week I'm burning at least 200 a day. Maybe I should back off the exercise. :(

    Some people got all animated and nasty when I created this thread stating that I lost 39 pounds in 7 weeks. Some were so goofy as to claim I was lying about my weight loss. Some said Im losing to much, too fast. This week, I cut back a little on exercise and only lost 2 pounds.

    That’s 41 pounds in 8 weeks.

    Awesome job! Don't know why people assume you're lying. Seems kind of ridiculous that anyone would even bother lying on here. I don't see how it would accomplish anything. You've got nothing to prove to anyone but yourself. Keep up the good work!

    I lost almost 40 pounds in 10 weeks, with not too much of exercising, I guess if I exercise a bit more I would lose more.

    Way to go OP! :)

    That's a great result and nevermind the begrudgers....I laugh when people say, 'That's too fast'...well um...being 168lbs overweight is very unhealthy, so it seems to me the faster you get to at least the obese category, the better. The weight loss will get slower and slower until you creep into the mild-overweight category, when losing weight is HARD work!

    Well done!

    Um....I don't buy it.

    Nor do you have to. Im just reporting my results. You not buying it does not mean I didnt lose 39 pounds in 7 weeks.

    Im working out 3 days a week and each time burning about 750 cals. Im eating less and excercising more and have a lot to lose so its coming off fast in the begining.


    dont listen to all those haters out there! why would you post it, if it wasn't true! You keep doing you!!! Let everyone else worry about them! I don't know how people could possibly be so negative?!

    It's possible ESPECIALLY in the beginning. She has a lot of weight to loose. I've lost 11 lbs in one week before. It's possible, maybe the calorie intake is less than what OP is reporting but let's not be so skeptical and criticize people for it. Let's be happy and it's it's in fact true, then CONGRATULATIONS!
