Hi all!

My name is Pamela. I'm 49, married, and mom to two teenagers. I'm pretty new to the EM2WL group. I would love to be able to find more friends who share the same outlook on dieting - people who 'get it' that starving yourself on 1200 cal/day is no way to live! :smile:

    Thanks everyone! Friend requests accepted and sent. :)

    I've tried to absorb as much information as I can. I think I understand where my calorie intake ought to be but I have been struggling with simply eating that much food.

    Pamela :)

    Anyone can add me from this group too! I've had to start removing friends that are still on the 1200 calorie diet because their comments on my diary tend to be negative.

    HI Pamela. I don't post much here, but I'm also relatively new to the EMWL (6 weeks in, 4 after cut).
    I didn't do a full reset (I counted my 2 week work trip and vacation as a reset). Ignore the scale the first few weeks, and trust the process- it does work!.
    If you need some encouragement: I'm only 5'1" with less than 10 lbs to go as of now, and I've consistently been losing 0.5-1lbs/week since I started the cut. It's slow, but it's more than the 0 lbs I was losing before, and I feel human. I am not hungry, I can fit in a treat here and there, and I can kill it when I work out because I have lots of energy.
    Anybody- feel free to add me.
