Congratulations! You look great!

My snacks very often resemble a "Meal". ex.) Turkey on whole wheat or I have protein shake for my early breakfast and whip up egg substitute and veggies( potato also if high carb day) and have that for my am snack. If you eat it for a meal, it should be fine for one of your snacks. All 5 of my meals end up each being…

Congratulations! It sounds like you are doing well so far! I'm on week 6 and my weight loss isn't as quick as I thought it would be. I may throw some more carb free meals into my high carb days to pump up the loss. Best wishes! Kim

Hang in there... I wasn't too thrilled with slingshot week either... It seemed like my cravings increased and my stamina started to dwindle... I thought this week (the week after slingshot) would bump me up to maybe a 2 pound loss, but I sneaked on the scale this morning and was up a pound.. TOM is due, so that may be part…

My first slingshot was 1 pound also! Yeah!

I'm so, so sorry! This weight loss thing is so difficult!! I really feel for you!! As you well know, I have really struggled even at the beginning of my journey to lose weight... I would give my right arm to have lost how much you have already lost.... I know this isn't very comforting to you right now... But be glad for…

I'm freaking a little, I know I wasn't supposed to, but stepped on the scale and I'm up 2 pounds!!!! I'm hoping it is just water! I really was wanting to see a loss even in slingshot week. Oh well!

Thanks for your help!

I'm usually in the range of 1200 to 1500 but there have been several around1000.

Congrats! Keep on the right track!

Welcome to the group!

That is great! Congrats!

I'm at the same spot as you.. Monday will begin slingshot week for me. I'm gonna try it and see what happens and then tweak it from there. I don't find that I really miss the carbs on my low carb days, but I'm just gonna play it by the book for now and see what happens.. Good luck to you in whatever you decide... I just…

I'm in!

Sorry I can't help you with that, but I would think you could add a little, and test it... For breakfast I use Almond Milk, protein pwd, and cinnamon to put on my granola cereal,, The cinnamon, makes it yummy... :)

Great Job!

You look great!

I agree with Sugar beans.. Fruit is a carb and can be consumed in a high carb meal. :)

I agree with the measuring. I lost 5 pounds the first week and 2 pounds the second week. ( i'm 115 pounds overweight) BUT in 2 weeks I lost lots of inches. Bust- 1" upper ab- 1 1/2" Lower ab- 1 " right leg 1/2 " right arm 1/2" In only 2 weeks!!! So hang in there! I bet the fat is falling off!

Congrats! Keep up the good work!

You look GREAT!

Amazing story!! AND freakishly similar to mine...Although, I'm just starting. My first marriage was a rough one, then I found my true love, then just a few months ago my daughter told me she didn't want to end up like me (said in a nice way), signed up here that night. I'm 115 pounds overweight and 45.... Similar! NOW if I…

Just started this on Sat. It can be difficult eating with the family... I'm sure it will take come time to tweek... This is day 3... I have my fingers crossed...

Awesome job!

I'm really excited to try these new suggestions... It is giving me hope.... I do love my carbs, tho.... Yikes! I want the weight off more!

I just started taking it too! I hope it helps!!!

Thanks all! I'm gonna be a litte more vigilant and see what happens.. I'm gonna bump my calories down a bit too... I have really been wondering about the carbs, too.... I will cut back on those!

Great job! You look great!
