I've lost 14 lbs in the last 30 days. I started at 220 lbs.

Way to go! I have lost 14 lbs in the last 28 days myself! Great job!!!

I have been doing low carb. But probably need to play with my macros just a bit more to be actually in ketosis. I have lost 14 (or so) pounds in the last 28 days. ADD ME PLZ!

I am on a low carb diet. As of last weigh-in, I had lost 14 lbs after dieting for 27 days. I prob won't check my weight again until next week. Would love to add friends!

I am "moderate" carbing (for a whole host of reasons). So far 13 lbs in less than a month! Feel free to add me, if you will :blush:

I noticed that a couple of my skinny jeggings were actually busted at the inseams. Boy, the lengths I was going to in order to lie to myself! I am only 13 lbs down, but I might walk into a store to see if I can fit a 10 instead of a 12...just to get a general guide of how close I am.

I just realized I was stuffing my size 12 body into size 6 albeit "stretchy" clothing. I keep asking myself when did become a 12? Most of my clothes have elastic in the waist because I hate pants and skirts that zip and button. So maybe the elastic just...stretched with me. Boy do I feel duped!

I agree! Pics, or it didn't happen! Hahahahaha

I am a full hourglass (big boobs, tiny waist, big muscular booty and thighs) and 5'7 tall. Here is what I have noticed about my own body from previous weight loss: At my heaviest, I was 240 lbs and was US size 18/20 220 lbs - US Size 12/14, 40G bra 200 lbs - US Size 10 190 lbs - US Size 9 170-190 - US Size 8/9, 38DDD bra…

Anyone feel free to add me -- the MORE pals, the BETTER!!!

I prefer not to eat processed foods unless I am in a real pinch. I dabbled with Atkins ready-to-go dinners, etc. I do much better when I cook my own foods and veggies.

I find that I have to have a certain amount of protein to keep full. The more carbs I have, the more I crave them. I don't have cravings like that anymore.

Thanks for the info. Yes, I agree with your side note :) I actually had lost 110 lbs a few years ago. Mostly water weight in the first 2 weeks, but a steady 2ish lbs a week thereafter. My carbs aren't super low...although I aim to keep it under 100g a day. On the other hand, I don't think I could eat enough food in a day…

I am so glad this thread was created. I know everyone's body is different. I was reading an article that says, "Two people can have identical body compositions and activity levels, yet due to individual metabolic variations, one may be able to eat twice as many carbs as the other and still lose fat." Source:…

It's cool. I am soaking up all answers as this is really intriguing to me.

Hi there Evamutt! If you don't mind, how many do you eat on average per day?

I went to 2 doctors thinking I was IR, had thyroid/hormonal problems, or allergic to something (bloated). After hours of poking and prodding and several tests, I never got diagnosed with anything. The last doc told me to lower my carbs after we went over my diet this summer. I didn't actually lower my carbs until a couple…

I am in the same boat. Now that I have tweaked my diet by lowering my carbs...I am losing a steady 2 lbs a week.

I feels liberating. Thanks! I might not be articulating what I mean when I say I metabolize differently. I just mean that...if I get over 100g of carbs a day on any diet, I stall or even gain. Here is what I mean: My diet when I stalled: 1200 calories. I was eating stuff that was healthy but would be too dense in carbs for…

This is always in debate. But yes, at least it's true with me and my Mom. We can't eat a lot of carbs without gaining weight easily, no matter the calories. I know for a fact that carbs matter in my case. I have tested it time and time again. To be fair, I gain and lose weight pretty easily. Year 2010: went on a diet that…

I think this can be viewed as a challenge, if one wants to take it that way. But life expectancy? I'll see if I can entice my BF into doing this. :D I'm naturally clumsy and also off-balance due to sinus. I am not going to take it too hard if I get a 1.

Started seeing collar bone and an elongated graceful neck. I stopped depending on my waist trainer. I cried :'(

Add me plz. Anyone else needing support, feel free to add me

Add me plz!

Me! Add me!

Need friends too! I have always had weight issues. In my first round of weight loss...I had lost nearly 100 lbs. Since then, I've regained due to some tough issues. To be honest, I am happy with my body the way it is, but I need to lower my weight so that I don't inherit Type II diabetes. Plus, 95% of my wardrobe is a size…

I have the cheaper version of 21DF...called Perfect Portions for $9.99. I lost my food scale so that's why I got it on a whim at Walgreens. So far I'm down 4 lbs in my first week...so hoping to lose a steady 1-3 lbs each week after this one. I agree, the containers add another chore to your day since you're constantly…

I misplaced my food scale. But I invested in Perfect Portions containers at Walgreens. It's similar to 21 Day Fix but cheaper. It doesn't come with exercise DVDs like 21DF, but I have a regimen. I fill up the containers at each meal and so far have lost 4 lbs in my first week. There's zero guesswork involved. Hopefully,…

I can't find the group...how do I get an invite? I am still new around here....
