  • I feel ya. I have about 150 lbs to lose and I've been counting calories, weighing food and doing cardio/weights for at least 30 min 5x a week for 6 weeks now. Everything is the same. Weight, clothes fitting, etc. It's very depressing and hard to stay on track but I'm hoping (like someone mentioned above) that it's just…
  • No I have not. Is it available in the vitamin section?
  • I'm definitely stealing the potato salad! I'm in need of side style dishes! Thanks!
  • Thanks ladies! My husband is doing low carb with me so that probably makes it easier for me mentally.

  • Wow great job! I've been doing it for almost two weeks and down about 9 lbs. Approximately same starting weight as you and I'm doing about 1860 calories. When you say you'll adjust to a 20% deficit, what do you mean and how do you do that? Thank you for your help and congrats on your hard work!
  • I'm having the same issue. Tried 3 different sleeping pills and melatonin. I will try that magnesium supplement suggested because I am so tired!
