WTG! That is awsome! I am now down 8lbs under my pre-pregnancy weight & it feels great!

I have a goal of 90-100lbs to loose. I started Jan 1st and have lost 28lbs since. I took a break end of April through yesterday & started back today. I did not go crazy & I still watched portion sizes & tried to keep an eye on what I ate, but I did not count anything. I did not gain any of the weight back & in fact I lost…

I usually adjust within 3-4 weeks of upping my water intake. So I would think that you would have adjusted to the amount by now. I do know that even after my body gets used to it, I still have to go to the bathroom a good bit more than I would if I were drinking sodas and all.

I am the mom to a very energetic almost 5 year old little boy. I am also looking to loose weight & get healthier for my son. I have been walking with a friend a couple of days a week for excersize. We go to a little local park that has a walking track. My son rides in his stroller & then afterwards he gets to play at the…

Thanks Everyone! I am ready to start. Today is my 1st day. I am nervous, yet excited. I am going to get my a little notebook & write everything down.

I agree with this. I am also on Weight Watcher's. I am not paying for it either. I am however using the old system. I have done it in the past & know how it works. I have bought a few Weight Watchers products, but 99.9% of what I have & am eating is regular food. I found/find it very helpful to buy the set of books &…

I never weigh in at exactly the same time. I always just weigh in as soon as I get up & go pee. I would say that as long as all the other conditions were the same, then the reading should be right.

I am currently doing WW's, but I am using the old system. I have really changed how I am eating. I also am not going to meetings, I am doing it alone b/c I can not afford to pay for the meetings. I have lost 17.8lbs since January 1st. Yes it is coming off slow;y, but I am happy with that. I think it really depends on the…

I have a frend/co-worker who is doing the appitite suppresant & b-12 injections. She has lost over 80lbs on it. She is still not done, but she is doing great with them. She has like 1300 calories a day. I would not do it with a 500 calories a day, that is insane. I wished I could have joined her with that, but I can not…

I am using the Implanon birth control implant right now. I have not had any trouble loosing weight while using it. *Just a side note. Be very careful with the Depo. I was on it for 3 years. I loved it. However my primary care Dr as well as my GYN said that it can cause bone loss after several years of use. :( So watch it…

I weigh myself 1 time a week & that is it. I weigh myself on Saturday morning right after I get up & go pee. I also take the 1st reading it gives me. :)

I am right there with you. I have lost 17.8lbs as of today. I can NOT see a difference at all except in my face. However I can feel it in my clothes. Other people are also saying they see it, but I fail to. :( I know that I took pictures today & still can not see it much. Sigh. I am hoping that in another 10-20lbs I will…

I had the exact same problem every other time I have tried to loose weight. This time I told DH that I was VERY serious about wanting to loose the weight. I told him that I needed him to support me & that meant not bringing me home junk all the time. Also it meant that some of the junk he loves, but that I also love, would…

I hit the12lb mark as of yesterday. While I can not really "see" a difference I can "feel" a difference. I feel better in general & my clothes are starting to become way to loose. Also other people have noticed a difference. So, while it may not be obvious to yourself, it is a big difference.

1817.2 + 10 = 1827.2

I have the same problem. However it has gotten MUCH better this time around b/c I am workign harder & doing SO much better myself. He can see how serious I am about it this go around. I also had a major discusion with him about it before I started. I told him that while I know that he is happy with how I am, that I am not.…

We had breakfast for dinner. We had omlets with carmelized onions & sautted mushrooms, ham, sausage & cheese. Then we had biscuts & gravy. I had 1 2 egg omlet with a little cheese, sausage & ham, then lots of onions & mushrooms. I also had 1 biscut with a little gravy. Not the best, but not the worst. I then had 1 cup of…

a sandwhich on 100% whole wheat bread, laughing cow cheese wedge, carrots & FF ranch, grapes, a salad, apple, veggie soup, leftovers. Not all at the same time of course, just some ideas. :)

I have tried the Tuna Noodle Casserole. It was really good. However I wished it was just a bit creamer, but it was still super super good. I have been looking at that cheesecake recipe. I would like to make it & then freeze it into indivual pieces to have as a treat here & there. Thanks for sharing that it is good. Can you…

I weigh every Saturday morning after I get out of bed & go pee. I started on a Saturday, so that is my weigh day! I also only weigh myself once a week b/c I would hate to see fluctuations. I want to see a loss.

That is awsome! Congrats!!! I can not wait to move down in sizes some. I started with a tight 24 & those pants are now starting to get loose on me!

Congrats!!! I hit the 10lb mark this morning. I was SO excited! having lost 10lbs feels great.

I understand exactly where you're coming from. My DH has been alot like this in the past. He is skinny & has no need to loose any weight. However this time he can see a difference in how I am going about this. I have told him that this is going to be a lifestyle change for me & that I would like for him to join me. That he…

Congrats!!! That is awsome.

I have lost 8lbs so far over the last 3 weeks. I do not see to much of a difference, but I can feel a difference in my clothing. I had a pair of pants that were to tight when I started, but they are comfortable on me now. Keep up the GREAT work. I can not wait for people to start noticing on me.

Congrats on your weight loss. That is AWSOME!! I am starting week 4 today & I have lost 8lbs so far. I lost 4.4lbs my first week & have lost right at 2 the other 2 weeks. So I am averaging 1.5-2lbs every week. I figure that will put me at around 6-10lbs a month. Keep up the awsome work.

I will drink a smoothie, have a small piece of chocolate & eat it slowly (like a hershey's kiss, a fun size candy bar, a dove chocolate) a cup of yogurt, a piece of fruit, sometimes I will just go get a diet soda or a glass of water. Also the Fiber One chocolate bars are super good & filling. I also have a granola that has…

I would wean yourself off of them slowly. What about cutting it to 1/2 a diet soda for a few days. If you take them out suddenly you could cause yourself to have caffine withdraw headaches. I know I have them if I skip my onecup of coffee or diet soda a day. I also do not thing that 1 a day will kill you. I think that just…

If you're used to drinking alot of sode& you cut it out, then it might be that you're not getting any caffine. I usually drink a cup of coffee or a diet soda in the morning/early day to have some caffine. If I have no caffine then I will have a headache the rest of the day. Also taking to long in between meals will make…

I have to agree with the other poster that you may not be taking in enough fiber. I would try to watch the amount of fiber you're taking in & increase it. Also fiber rich foods can also aid in the help of loosing weight. So it is good for you. Also make sure that you're drinking enough water. Not enough water can also make…
