I bought a case a week ago and have lost 5 lbs...I'm sure it's mostly water but it has really kicked started my weightloss again. Now the challenge will be to keep this diet going and/or transition into normal foods with the same amount of calories. I like that I can just pickup the can and go. I happen to like the taste,…

and the winner is???

Well, today, the day after our weigh in I'm at 157.5 - go figure!

Not exactly the numbers I wanted to see this am...but it is what it is... weigh in this morning at 158.5 so I gained .5 lbs over the last two weeks

that is awesome!!!

well, I know we don't need to post our 1 week weigh in (1 week minus 1 day), but I'm still at the same weight I was last Thursday...so I guess that is good. I was hoping to be a little less, but I guess I'll have to wait until the Dec 2 weigh in for that. Good luck with your weight loss everyone!

welcome Loren! and to the person who asked where to get smileys...the link is on the far right of the blue bar above the text box when you reply to a message

cute thread... I make digital scrapbooks using CM's software called Storybook Creator Plus...

and way to go on your weight lost already!!! that is AWESOME

that's awesome! I always do the opposite b/c I never know if we will go out for dinner or not so I try to be conservative during the day...thanks for the tip!

the good thing for you is that breastfeeding BURNS calories. I found that I lost all of my pregnancy weight while breastfeeding for the first 13 months and once that stopped the lbs started adding up b/c I wasn't doing any exercise and still eating the same amount of food.

ok, I did that last night to make up for the few grams of protein I was missing...so I guess I'm doing the right thing...

welcome! I've been here for 5 days and so far so good. easy to keep up with and lots of great motivation to keep it going

we only have a PS3 here...anyone tried that one? wondering if that is worth it. Wii has more games for the younger kids (which we have), but we really aren't a video game household anymore.. 21 year old no longer in the house :-)

how is everyone doing? thanksgiving is just a few days away? how are you planning to stay on track while those out of town guests are in or when you are the one traveling?

writing down EVERYTHING I eat REALLY helps me. Don't give up, the only way you are going to see a change is if you truly make a change and are consistent. You can do it!!!

well you've already done half of the challenge! you provided your starting weight...now you just need to stick to your plan and lose lbs vs gain during this Thanksgiving holiday! On Dec 2 you need to provide your ending weight. Here's what to do: post your weight as of Thursday (November 18th!) then in 2 weeks (December…

Good morning! Looking forward to my first challenge...hopefully this will keep me focused during the first two weeks of counting! I weighed in at 158 this morning and hope to just keep shedding off the lbs as the weeks progress! Thanks for the extra incentive!

bumping for Thursday Nov 18

Well, I ended up not having to eat at CEC at all! They didn't even order any food, so rathern than order an entire pizza for just us, we left a little early and ate at home :-) and I was under for the day!!!

that is AWESOME! congrats on your dedication. Keep up the great work!

I'm in! Sounds like a great little extra incentive

thanks for the welcome everyone!:smile:

I just joined and am ready for this challenge!
