This appears to be the only question you ask in your original post. So you are asking people's advice on whether you should give up and be miserable for the rest of your life? I would go with no, and you have had good advice here, but are not giving people enough information to help you. You do have a tendency to find…

Thanks guys - I like the idea of giving Gilly a bit of backchat!! :laugh:

I'm starting it today!

I can't find the group in the group search bar - has the name changed?

I'm in.

Bump.

That is quite a good weight loss for a month. The people who are 'losing 3 pounds a week', are they a lot bigger than you are? More comes off if you are much heavier.

Loves to travel and have fun! (that was for Kitty D)

Good Luck, Debbers!

One of the most popular things about people wanting to do the Atkins diet is that you see instant results - I did it for a while years ago and lost 10 pounds in the first 2 weeks. Then it dropped off. I gave up in the end because I just found it so hard to cut out carbs - bread, pasta - mmmmmmmmm. I think it is only…

I don't think anyone really bothers with anyone's else's food journal unless you ask them to. Who cares what other people think anyway? Life's too short.

If you are overweight and want to lose weight, then there is only one way that you can achieve this. Eat less. Move more.

"What does your husband think of your weight loss??" Not sure what to say to that - "Well, he used to think I was a disgusting fat bloated pig, so it's lucky I lost the weight, eh?" Not quite sure whast people expect to hear when they say that. Also - "you're wasting away" "why do you want to lose any more weight?" But…

I would move into her house she may have ice cream

For some reason I am offended by jeggings.

Do you mean the atkins diet? Or variation of? I tried that a few years ago and it works for a while, but the choice of low carb food are very slim when you're out and about (nearly everything involves bread!) so unless you think you can religiously prepare every meal you eat...I was ultimately too lazy and if you are at…

To get into the 140s - I have been hovering at 150 for far too long!

Yes - I don't know why 'light' housework is in there. I don't think I will count it as exercise any more unless it is, as you say, something a bit more strenuous. Just spent 15 minutes mowing the lawn and I'm sweating like a pig! I think I would be as sweaty if I juts spent 15 minutes jogging!

Good luck. I have sent you a friend request.

Bump

Nice abs.

I'm 39, 5 foot 6, weigh 150 pounds.

1. Going smoothly, doing all right. Copacetic. 2. Proceeding quickly. This expression may have originated in Scotland, where it's the title of a popular children's song. A song called "Everything Is Tickety-Boo" was recorded by Danny Kaye as part of the film "Merry Andrew". This expression is heard more often in Canada…

Take it to work and do it there (secretly of course!) - that's where my scale is. It's a pain in the *kitten* to weigh yourself every day at work!

It's too late for me, I juts eat a whole Galaxy Cookie Crumble slab. Save yourselves...

I'll have the chocolate cake please...
