Welcome. add me as a friend if you like. The support here is fantastic. Logging EVERYTHING you put in your mouth is a real eye opener. Apparently I'm a snack freak but have cut back SO much since joining this site. And if I do snack on something I just log it. There are tons of ideas and encouragement here. Yes, WE CAN do…

You must be doing something right if you are shrinking. Keep going and the pounds will start to drop along with your body shrinking. That's what they all say...........your measuring tape can tell more than the scale. Good going!

Thats the first thing I thought of too. "Log it." No worries now, it's over. Remember how you feel about it though and it might help you not to do it again soon. Not NEVER, just not soon. You can have anything you want..........just not everything today. :)

Hi. I'm a mother of 3 women and a grandmother of a boy and girl myself! I too have ALWAYS been on a diet. Now, I'm thinking of it as eating NORMAL and having a meal once a week or so of indulgence. I have been on here for a week or so and I absolutely love it. My suggestion would be to get some friends, get on the site…

You are not doing anything wrong. Give you body time to adjust. You might try changing up some of the foods you eat. I have noticed that if I eat wrong foods and still stay under my calorie limits, I don't lose (and I can feel that I'm not losing) as fast as I would if I had eaten less red meat, less bad fat, less dairy,…

My friend did that diet. People lose a lot of weight on it so if you can stick with it, go for it. I would suggest for you to stay on this site for encouragement to keep it off when you start eating real foods. Low calorie diets aren't gonna kill you in the short term. I am always looking for something to jump start me.…

Welcome. Add me as a friend if you like. I love reading the things people have to say. This site is very encouraging and I can say what I need to say to build myself up. Besides, you never really learn better than when you teach others. :)

I would suggest: Prepare finger foods ahead of time and put in baggies to grab when you have a rushed morning. String cheese (i just bought some for 25 cents a piece), small amounts of meat (maybe leftovers?) and healthfood stores have gluten free everything. I found some crackers at Trader Joes that are delicious.

Welcome here!! I too am new and done with being fat. I am going to get this weight off and with all the encouragement we can find on this site it's gonna happen this time!. I agree with the walking. I try to walk/run sometimes but don't like running very much. Too many things bouncing around LOL. Wash the floor with a rag…

Wow, 5 pounds already. That's awesome. You must feel great!

Thank you all for inviting me. It's great to read others' posts and encouragement to keep at it and work out. It's gonna be a lifestyle change this time instead of a "long haul." That sounds so negative so I'm not going to say it anymore. When I enter my food, it's like reality staring me in the face. I can't believe how…
