I am participating in the biggest loser contest through my work place and took advantage of the calorie counter on here. Over the past two weeks I cut coffee, soda, and junk food out of my diet and started eating correct portions at meals and healthy food! The weight is just seems to be melting off!! I haven't even started working out yet! I lost 5.5 lbs my first week and 3.5 this week!! Yeah me!!:happy:

Congratulations on your quick weight loss. It is always fun to see those scales moving down.
I have copied and pasted the link for a great post by a member named.Banks. He has lost weight and kept it off, a true success story. It has been really helpful to me and many others.

Way to go leighoconnell ... feels great don't it?
DeeDeeLHF; Hey ... thanks for that link. I've saved it too to remind me when I get to one of those "phases" which usually make me throw up my hands in defeat. Not this time man ... no way!!0 -
Thats awesome! Feels good doesn't it. Add in some exercise and you are on your way to the top.
I am in the biggest loser contest at my job as well - next week is the last week and I have been in the top spot last week and just today as well. Its a close race but I am going to push hard for the next 5 days to stay on top.0 -

you cut out coffee?! i wish i could do that... i have like 2-3 cups a day and feel like i cant function without it. do you put sugar in it? i dont use sugar in mine only 2% milk so its about 15 calories per cup. maybe i should give that up too. :happy: :happy:
your weight loss is AMAZING especially since you havent started working out yet. imagine how much more youll lose once you start! you are so lucky! good luck =]0
