Banks, since you seem to be very skilled at this weight loss thing I want your advice. I am 5ft 8 inches and weigh 147. My bmi is 23. According to all the charts I am in my ideal weight range for the normal but I don't want to weigh this much. I have always weighed 125-130 eating whatever I wanted and since I turned 35…

I just bought a bottle of Hydroxycut at Wal-mart and want to know if anyone has tried it and if there are side effects?!?! I am trying to drop thirty pounds by July 27th (beach vacation) and need some quick help.. I tried dropping my calorie count to 1000 a day and felt so weak I could not even exercise. So I am increasing…

I agree with the obsessive thing! I didn't need to diet until I was on a diet and I became obsessed with not being able to eat that I started cheating and eating worse than I did before the diet because I never thought about food until I could not eat it. CRAZY! I wish I would have never came up with this crazy idea of…

Hey! Thanks for the challenge. My current is 146 and my goal for valentines is 142!!

Thanks for all the wonderful words to encourage... Today is a new day and I need to put my big girl panties on and get to it!! No more complaining! I think I will just avoid the scale until Feb. and go from there. Besides, it is not about the pounds but how I look so if I can look good and 145, so be it!! Thanks again..

Well, for the last two weeks I have been in total denial. I have not been to curves to work out (until today) and I have eaten and drank any and everything I could. I know I have gained but I am too scared to get near the scale. I almost want to just give up and say I can't do it. This is my first diet ever and I have only…

I go to curves usually five days a week. I go about 4 when my kids all get home from school and my husband is home from work. I go on Saturday in the morning if I miss a day during the week. I love Curves! It is a great escape for me!! I am not really dropping much weight but I am dropping some inches. My trainer insist it…

3 pounds:sad:

Hey! I am from Texas too!! Welcome! I was a soda freak too and I was so shocked how many calories they have. So, I changed over to Dier Dr Pepper which is zero calories. It took some getting use to but now I love them. Try a diet one and see what you think... Good luck.

I only keep up with my calories. Gave up on the rest!!

Groves, Texas which is by Beaumont!! Go Cowboys!!!

I am 5'8" and currently weigh 145. I want to weigh 125 but will settle for 135...

Question for you since you worked at Curves.. If I did gained weight that was muscle in the first two months, does that mean eventually I will drop weight that will be fat? Or, will I keep gaining weight and it be muscle? I have lost four inches..

Happy story for the day.... I lost 1 pound in one week. Only nine to go......

I went over 120 calories and I feel not so bad.... I have worked out everyday this week and been under everyday except today... And I weighed today and have lost a pound in one week. Only 9 to go....

Thanks for your input! I have added a 45 minute walk with my dogs. (I have three dogs and they get 15 minutes each) I am getting a good workout cause they like to pull me.... I am trying that at least three times a week and see how it goes. I just dread the holidays cause I love the sweet stuff. I actually will skip a meal…

I want to drop the weight because I have never weighed this much in my entire life. Not even during my third pregnancy where I weighed the most. I am 5'8" and weigh 146. (I weighed 143 w/ my third child) I usually weigh 125-130. I have always been very thin and actually had to battle to gain weight. I don't know what…

I am with you. I dread the scale so once a month will be fine with me.

I have been a member of curves for almost three months now. Just curious if anyone is also doing curves and if they are having a good result. I have lost four inches but gained three pounds!?!? I go at least three times a week and at the most five. I know I am having a harder time because I only want to drop ten pounds and…

Hey everyone! My name is Denise and this is my first time to ever diet. I have always been fortunate and thin but age has caught up with me and now I have to take action. I need to drop ten to begin with and it has been very hard... I workout at Curves four times a week which is fun. The "not snacking" is where the problem…
