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!!

    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.

    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 =]
