You look great! Good job on your loss.

Thank you so much for all the responses. My cholesterol problem is because of my diet. I have a good 50 lbs to lose. I did try the ketogenic diet for a couple months. I'm sure I was doing it wrong. I really believe that has a lot to do with the jump in cholesterol levels. I just want to get back to tracking, having the…

I was taking fish oil daily and the Dr I saw on this occasion (my Dr wasn't available) told me that I should stop taking it and that it may be the cause of my high cholesterol. He said that it's not for everyone. I was a bit confused. When I saw my Dr and told her about it, she didn't have much to say about it. Still…

Princess7955 Just for fun I counted calories for a few days AND tracked my food with the Core de Force food guide. By the end of the day, I was only at 1000 calories and I had followed their container recommendations perfectly. So I guess my long winded response summarized: If you need to learn about portion control or how…

Thanks everyone :-) For those of you who have counted calories instead of using the food plan with your program of choice, did you use the daily calories recommended by your plan? I'm asking because I currently use 1,200 and Piyo wants me at 1,780 daily. BIG difference lol I understand I need to eat more because I'll be…

Thanks everyone, all of these ideas are very helpful!

Thank you, everyone. When I said my food plan, I meant that I stay at 1200 calories daily. Great shares, I really appreciate it!

Good job on your loss! I am almost done with my first week of calorie counting and I'm loving it! It's almost like a game to move calories around. One day at a time, for sure :-)

Hi, you were me last week :-) My first week has been a good one. This calorie counting hasn't been as hard as I thought it would be. I'll add you for added support. :-)

Peggy53lee I was on WW years ago and although it did work, I didn't want to continue paying for it to lose the weight. I totally understand. Have you heard of Leslie Sansone's walk off he pounds dvds? They are great.

Thank you, yes I agree.

From California here, I want to lose 60 lbs. Let's do this!! Love to have and give support, we got this!! Add me if you would like more friends :-)

Thank you, I'll be sure to look into that.

Hi, I can't figure out how to add people...I feel so out of it lol I'm on day 2 as well. Day one wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Here's to day 2 :-)

Great job!

Love that you shared so freely. I feel that it's a safe zone to do so. I would love to support you on this journey and I could use friends who support as well. Day one together :-)

Good for you! My husband put his little stash of candy away so it wouldn't be tempting. Happy first day to us! I hope tomorrow will be just as good.

Thank you both for the tips. I like the idea of eating later. I'm not much of an early morning eater so I think I'll definitely use this advice.
