Good luck to you, however you decide to do it. For me it changes on a routine basis, but yes, the calories are the key. It is not easy. And I understand your need to do something quick. Doesn't mean it is rational or even right, but it's human nature. Hope you get the support you need here and at home. :D

I'll admit, I just started it -- on Day #3. I've done it once before (don't think I got past week #2) and did lose some weight. How are you doing so far? I've lost 2 lbs--- I think. lol

There is a Group on here called the No Junk Food Challenge. Its 21 days to basically stop yourself from craving junk -- or foods that are without any real nourishment. (At least that's the way I interpret it). Maybe that is what he intended for you because this is not low carb. Search for that group and maybe that would be…

I've done WW in the past and while it is a good program, its just easier to find calorie info with the new laws coming into place. You can usually find calorie info, but not fiber content, etc. I got frustrated with the new system too. And of course the Free part! :)

Congrats!!!

Focus on the good part of that story. You've done it before. That means you can do it again!!! Good luck.

Raxtx76 8....nice eyes.

The more I read here, I think I'll save my money and time. All I had to hear was "Twilight"....ugh!

I haven't read this yet, I'm debating. I just sounds over hyped, I'm kind of cynical. Funny, I've never heard anyone say anything about a great plot. LOL Maybe there's your answer.

I get the first two...but sleepiness??? LOL The things these researchers waste money on....

This feedback is really helpful. So many times I've gone "over" to around 1,500 and I feel like such a failure that day. 1,200 is easy on some days when I do something big for exercise, but a struggle on other days. This makes me feel like I'm on track if I stay close to it. Thank you!

Hi there. I've been on and off of this site for at least a year now. I'm starting over -- hopefully one last time. And I would LOVE to lose at least 50 lbs before my company meeting this November in Cancun. Let's do it together!! :)

Can't fix stupid either! Don't let him hurt you. (I know it did sting.) So sorry.... Consider it motivation to prove him wrong.

Thanks for the replies. Maybe I'll try a modified version of this -- really just training my palate and my will power to reach for those fresh fruits and veggies instead of starches for snacks or even sides to meals. I think if I can substitute what I am craving now for fruit and veggies that will be a good cleanse for my…

Exercising in the morning seems to be the only way that works for me. At night after work, dinner, laundry, playing chauffer for the kids.....it just doesn't happen. So, I set the alarm for 5:15 and after hitting the snooze button a couple times, I get up to do 30 mins on my stationary bike. I know it isn't a die hard work…

I was making smoothies, but realized I needed to EAT aka CHEW something. Drinking breakfast was not making me free like I had breakfast....a mind thing, I'm sure. So instead, I've started cutting up a medium banana, spooning over some light, fat free yogurt and then a sprinkling of sliced almonds. I even mixed in some Flax…

Excellent news! So what you are saying is don't give up, right? I hear ya! Today is a new day! Thank you.

I don't have the recipe with me, but if you go to Cook YourSelf Thin's website, they have a great recipe there. I've made it and not only did I like it, my teenagers did too! Good luck!

Saying NO to the diet sabotagers at work . Someone is always running out for fast food at lunch and trying to tempt me "You're not really gonna eat that salad/soup/Lean Cuisine, are you.??!". Yes, it was a weak arm to twist....but not anymore. It's a little change, but they all add up right?

Well, my baby is 15 and I am still trying to lose the weight...if that makes you feel better! lol And my live in boyfriend who is 6'3" compared to me at 5'4" can handle eating several times a day. Not easy to count calories around someone like that! And yes, he starts running and drops 5 lbs asap. So, I completely…

Thanks everyone! It is definitely motivating to know that I am not alone and others are doing it! Let's keep at it!
