I am starting too. Today was my first day. Did good! Was a little hungry but it wasn't awful. Drank water to get rid of the hunger. Good luck to you!!!! :)

I am in! This will be fun!! I have a desk job as well - but I can get out and walk when I want to. SW - 201 CW - 196 GW - 140

Does your gym have a pool? Swimming won't cause strain on your knees. You could also do just the upper body equipment. You are right in you don't want to cause anymore injury to your knee! :) You may also ask one of the trainers at the gym - they don't mind answering questions now and then. Hope this helps!

I added you!! Good luck!!

Hello!! Texas here also.. This site does have some excellent tools!!! Good luck to you!!

I am using these now. They help ALOT!!! I don't get quite so edgy. I still have the urge, and have cheated a couple of times, but I am determined to quit.

I will stab you in the neck with a knife!

I made these alot when I was doing the South Beach Diet. They are DELICIOUS!! And...they do heat up really well!! You can experiment with all different kinds of veggies too!!

Well, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be! I was imagining panting, heavy sweating, and wanting to quit halfway through. I got through the whole thing and even got on the bike afterwards for 10 more minutes. I am probably jinxing myself saying it wasn't that bad..lol I have looked at week 3!! :)

How the heck do we get rid of this????

What are some of the things you make everyday? I lost about 70 lbs a while back just changing the way I prepare some meals, because I didn't have the money to buy new stuff. I think I have become a pro at this..lol

You can add me!! We all need the encouragement! :)

I quit today. I bought the nicotine patches and bought some sugar free mints and gum.. (remember, these have calories you have to log..lol) I also cut up a bunch of veggies to snack on when I get the urge to smoke. Also, somebody else had a good idea..when you want to smoke, get up and go run and it will remind you why you…

Here is a quick trick if you don't have any chilled rice: it is still low-cal: Use the Hamburger Helper Chicken Fried Rice, mix in your own steamed veggies right before it's done. I use broccoli, mushrooms, fresh spinach, and zucchini. Not only it is delicious, but my 3 teenage boys LOVE IT!! I am a vegetarian, so I don't…

I am kinda new here. I lost 70 lbs before, and I have 30 to go. Doesn't seem like a lot, but it's tough. I have fun finding new recipes that are healthy to make and try, that helps keep me motivated. Pasta is my biggest weakness!! I could eat it every night! :)

It was great!! I can't wait to see the results at the end of the month!

I'm in!! Finished today after the gym! :)
