I don't know how realistic is should be..i set my goal to lose 1.5 lbs a week...I have lost 19 lbs since November 25th so..what 6 weeks? I don't work out, I think I am just more active than I think! I started eating 1530 calories a day, and now I eat 1460---I suppose it depends on starting weight and those things. But I…

weight loss is 99 % will power if you have to have sweets...log them first thing in the morning and then eat around them. nothing is forbidden..but sometimes i 600-700 calorie pastry will make you realize that in order to stay on track you will have a really low food allowance for the day. try making your own sweets--and…

I end up having fast food twice or so a week...I probably always will to some extent--However I know that, i have looked over all the menu options and no what i can have ahead of time (meaning what will fit in to my day) for instance :burger king--my child loves to play at their play ground..and I am too much of a fatty to…

if you guys are living together you need to talk to him ASAP or you will struggle reaching your goal. Tell him you don't want that stuff in the house to be tempted--and he is an *kitten* for eating them in front of you and telling you that you can't.

I am crying (for real) tears full of happy for you!!!

start small---log your food--you CAN have that cheese burger if you make it fit into your day--make a game out of it. I don't eat clean--at all...I eat what I want in smaller portions, I do avoid places i love because i still lack will power to portion myself--so I just avoid it.

i'm 5'5" my first goal is 150..and then i will see how i feel. my lowest weight before kids was 158, and i could fit a 6/8 and was pretty happy with my body. however if this comes off easy enough i might set different goals with 135 probably being the lowest . I will be more concerned with look than actual weight at that…

i am not motivated--i am just committed. it does help enormously that my husband is on board with me and we are each others rock and can talk about it non stop. I also have a 4 year old dynamo---keeping up with him is exhausting!!

one month = 16 lbs pretty excited! I have my goal set to 1.5 lbs a week however it has been about 2.5 lbs a week actually lost. but i started at 220 and have quite a bit to lose. I imagine it won't be this 'easy' in the coming months as i get smaller. I eat around 1500 calories or day..

i agree with spain girl--that is my plan of attack anyhow. i will eat the foods i really love and skip the ones i don't ..like i always put a little bit of everything..but only a handful of them are my actual favorites. my mom makes homemade noodles that are my absolute favorite. honestly i might just eat 1500 calories…

I try really hard to eat to taste--it helps me with my cravings so my snacks aren't so much healthy but they are portion controlled and i enjoy eating them which helps a TON with my cravings. I am super picky so they only way i will have long term success it to eat what i like this week : tostitos chips and salsa (24 chips…

you can have roughly 30 chocolate chips depending on brand for 70 calories. why do you even have chocolate in your home or on your person..? if it is a problem eliminate it!!! tough love--weight loss really is a battle of willpower. fit it into your daily goals--and log your food!!!!

depends on how much time is no time--i am in love with pumpkin waffles right now. it takes 1 minute in the toaster and i eat them. YUMMY. find something you like though so eating it is enjoyable.

5' 5" and 206 (started at 220) so almost 100 lbs to lose! feel free to add i LOVE friends!!

feel free to add me...I also started at 220. my goal is 140!

i am also a TV eater--it helps that I have kids and I make a point that we don't eat in the living room...if i want to watch a show i do in my room which happens to be the farthest from the kitchen..or i take a bowl of popcorn with me and add it to my daily total. (If I have room) I also keep some weights on the couch and…

I love this

i'm totally in--- i'm not so much an addict as i have portion control problems. I am on a 70 lb challenge journey 1 oz at a time.

I have only lost 13lbs..and sadly this is my THIRD go around losing 70 lbs...and i already feel 1000000 times better because i am in control and i have a PLAN. when I am thinner i LOVE life. I love going to do things..i feel pretty...I will say at my smallest I was my most critical of body image...but I think that is in…

really?!?! you lost A LOT of weight! quit loathing yourself..you kick *kitten*.

not single, I am an emotional eater as well as a see food eater (mostly see food eater!) I am at 208 right now and started at 220. I am 33 and a mother of 2! would love friends. PICK ME PICK ME.

I am one of the odd ones out, but I am also only 3 weeks in and DETERMINED....really determined and i have already been stressing about this and it is 2 months away. obviously i fixate on food and that is the problem that needs to be fixed. i seriously doubt skinny people sit around months before thanksgiving thinking…
