My name is Kathy. I started my weight loss journey after a scare from the doctor during routine blood work…. Diabetes!! I started making a food journal; it was a real shock to see what all I eat in a day. I started making better food choices, and eating less. In just 5 short months 25 pounds just melted away!! My follow up blood work was great no signs of Diabetes. Now I am at a stand still on weight loss so I have started to work out, it is really hard to stay on track.....I am weak and need help, so here I am. :sad:

    :happy: I just read about a food plan where you eat 100 calories each hour. It's supposed to rev up your metabolism or something like that. I thought this would be too much trouble, so I am doing 200 calories every 2 hours, which is doable for me. Anyway, since I started 2 days ago I have lost 3 1/2 lbs. I'm sure most of that is water weight at this point, but its still a jump start. You might try that to see if it will get you going again with the weight loss.
