    Interested in joining. I weigh 230 + pounds and I constantly change my weight around this number (sometimes high-sometimes low). Even my husband make fun of me that this is my lucky number, LOL.

    Need lot of motivation, tips and support. If I can get rid of this lucky number and get to 220's that will be great birthday gift for me towards the end of May.

    I read "Why we get fat and what to do about it" by G. Taubes. I have PCOS so I am insulin resistant. Because of this book I finally understood what it's going on in my body. As a result I started KETO diet. So far so good, I'm not hungry, it's not that hard as it seems at first and I'm feeling awesome :)

    Made a mostly clean eating meal plan for this week and have been trying to drink my 2L of water a day, as well as run 3 times a week and cross train at least 1 day a week.

    So far so good, here's hoping I manage to stick with it.

    Good Luck to everyone. I haven't been as dedicated this week due to stress so I have consumed more fatty foods than proteins and I can tell. I plan on getting more active than I have been this week.

    Saw your post about a shake at night. Ever try Almond Milk? I finally did this past week, after thinking it must be gross. Now, I have one every day blended with some fruit (frozen makes the best) and I figure I'm getting my fruit too along with less calories than milk!

    1 more lb to go! I've been very stressed with my university finals and have been having a hard time trying not to eat away the stress. I'm trying to substitute the urge to eat with going for runs instead. :)

    Last week was rough; I only had 2 days where I was under my calorie goal. This week, Monday thru Thursday have been excellent. This weekend will probably be a little rough calorie wise, but I'll do my best. I've changed my weigh ins, because the weekends are always rough for me. But, I've gone 4 days without bingeing, so I'm happy about that.
