here is definitely a great place to get motivation! the main thing is to just take every day a day at a time. progress can come slow, but every bit lost all adds up. also, portion control is key. way to go for wanting to get started again! good luck to you on your weight loss! :smile:

great job on starting! Keep it up! good luck to you on the rest of your weight loss :smile:

welcome! you can get a lot of support here! good luck to you on your weight loss!! :smile:

i used to drink them everyday.. pretty much all day.. but now, i drink more water. i have a diet soda once/twice a month.. i usually just have one when i want something fizzy, and just having one every so often fixes that.

Welcome! and here you will get a lot of support! it's helped me so much to keep motivated and stay focused. You can do it! Take it one day at a time. It's harder some days than others, but you can do it! Good luck to you on your weight loss! :smile:

great job for getting back on track! and here, there's a lot of support. it's helped me soo much! good luck to you on your weight loss!

dont have 1000 cals a day! I've basically had around a little over a thousand - 1200- a little more some days, and my body has gone into starvation mode i guess. yours will do the same if you have so few cals. have at least 1200 a day.

wow! great job!! i can't wait til my bmi is under 30. i got to lose 4 more numbers off my bmi. But im getting closer. Congrats to you!!

great job for starting! The first few days are the hardest, but it gets a lot easier. There's a lot of support here if you ever have any weak moments. Good luck to you on your weight loss!

most days i eat less than it tells me. it says i should be having 1480 cals. but generally i have a little over a thousand - 1300. ive only gone over 1480 2 times since being back on my diet for almost 2 1/2 months. Also, it depends how many calories you burn off, if you burn 500+ then you should definitely eat back some…

hey! advice I have is to watch your sodium. Don't drink a lot of soda (even if it's diet). Allow yourself a free day once a week or once every other week or so to avoid binge eating. Drink water. Also, take it a day at a time! Good luck to you on your weight loss! :smile:

i think it's worth it. The success stories help so much when you are feeling low on motivation!

Welcome! i think the calorie goal they give you is too much (in my opinion). It's saying I should have over 1,500 cals a day. But, I WON'T eat that much in a day. You are supposed to have at least 1,200 a day. I generally have either a little less or a little more than 1,200. But, I try really hard not to go over 1,400,…

welcome! There is a lot of encouragement here! It's helped me so much lately. Good luck to you on your weight loss! Take it a day at a time :smile:

Glad you feel so motivated! I do,too! I actually want to push myself harder. I feel even better when I'm losing more. Stay focused and the b day party, but still have fun! You can do it!
