Not sure if this helps at all but I've been on and off low carb for about a year and it works! Things I avoid that you may not think of- Fruit nuts beans root veggies (potatoes, etc) Cheese (when possible. In moderation at least) I eat a lot of meat and veggies and use Isopure for a protein shale 1-2 times a day. but half…

CUBS FAN ALSO HERE!!! This is my 3rd or so time on here. I lost 40 lbs for my wedding last August and put it back on and then some. Really need motivation here.

I've been doing it for a few weeks now and I really like it. Its nothing too difficult but you feel like workout.

Thank you guys so much for the happy thoughts! My mini goal is 150, my over the moon goal would be 135. :) I did see a weight loss doctor and she said 127 would be perfect.

I'm 5'5 My diet is pretty low carb, high protein and no sugar. :)

got it!

i cant get the pic to show :(

I'm eating the rest of my mealx 4x each day. 5 meals total.

I use a digital scale so I know how much food Im taking in. I use my fitbit app to track food. I also eat pretty much the same thing every day... Today for example- Breakfast- 2 poached eggs, 1 cup of grits Rest of my meals- 2.5 oz turkey patty 3/4 cups brocolli 1/2 cup brown rice

I've been logging my food on my fitbit so I haven't used this site as much. I've been doing this for a few months now. I should also add that I only drink coffee and water. about 125 oz of water a day

I swim for an hour about 4 days a week. I tend to alternate what I;m doing. I'll swim 10 lengths free, 10 back, 10 breast, 10 kick and 10 with a pulley. I do that twice so about 100 laps total. I started only doing about 60 but have worked my way up. Its the only thing I've tried that has helped me lose weight.

I just got back from being sick but even before that I was working out 3-5 days a week. Ive been doing this since the new year

Used to live in chicago too. Born and raised. what part?

I work out at least an hour a day, sometimes 2. Im eating 1000-1200 a day per MFP

the goal numbers are what MFP picked. I am a sucker for rice though :( But i still stay in the cals

Ok, made it public

Isnt a plateaus after 40 days a little weird? I was 4 lbs lower before my 2 mess up days

An Unwhich fron Jimmy Johns. You can have a beach club with no mayo for 200cals. Delish!

5'5- Started 31 days ago SW- 185 CW- 174 GW- 135 A long way to go but its working :)

Ive tried it and aside from wanting to stab my boyfriend for a bite of his dinner, it did work. HOWEVER- i stopoped after a few weeks and gained everything back then some. It's just not realistic. Yes, I lost 14 lbs in 2 eeks, but I was miserable. Tracking my cals and exercise on here is so much easier.

I track it all out of habit. Cant hurt, right? :)

Congratulations! THats awesome!!

Trade in the best friend!

Im eating 1000-1200 cals/day. Tracking everything like crazy. i guess it comes down to inches vs lbs, right? I am noticing my love handles going away, I just wish the number on the scale would go down too. Thanks for all the advice

I dont know whats going on with me. I have been keeping under my calories every night and I have gone up 3 lbs. Working out every day too. I've been on this site for almost a month but this last week isnt working out right. So confusing, I know.

Chicago! (but currently living in Seattle) dont judge :p

I'm down 3.5 lbs in 8 days- just started. it's different for everyone. Kepp going, youre doing great!
