I was on a month plateau. I started the 17 day diet which is high protein and low carb and it helped push me through it and I started losing again. I have lost almost 15 pounds since May 1st (when I started 17DD) for a total of 38 pounds. I also work out 5-6 days a week:-) Good Luck! I hope you find something that works…

I do not have a trainer and I have been on my journey for almost 4 months and lost 38 pounds. I have changed things throughout these 4 months and I currently eat 5 small meals a day and I eat about 100 grams of lean protein give or take 10 grams depending on the day. I don't find it hard to eat that much protein since I am…

I am on Cycle 1 Day 14 and so far it hasn't been bad. There have been a few days I have wanted some carbs but besides that I am doing well on it. I enjoy most of the foods on the diet and some of the recipes are really good. I have lost 7 pounds so far and I am hoping to get 4 more before next weekend and it shouldn't be…

I started the 17 day diet which is no carbs for the first 17 days and unlimited lean proteins (chicken, turkey and ground turkey), fish and veggies. 2 servings of fruit before 2 pm and 2 servings of probiotic foods. I lost 2 pounds in one day:-)

Truvia is made from the stevia plant and essentially is the same thing. I add 2 tablespoons of sugar free fruit preserves (blackberry is my fav) to the greek yogurt and I love it:-)

I am on week 2 of the 17 Day Diet which is no carbs the first 17 days and then slowly introduce healthy carbs the next 17 days. You are supposed to lose 10-12 pounds the first 17 days. You can get the book at most stores. Good Luck on your journey!!!

I have been on Mirena for almost 3 years. I have read many boards where people say a side effect of Mirena is gaining weight. I didn't gain much weight maybe a few pounds but I have had trouble losing weight. I am not sure if it is the mirena or if it is just my body. I will say that to lose at a good pace like I have been…

I am a SAHM mom of 3 kids:-) I have about 40 left to lose. Feel free to add me!!!

Do you work out? strength training? Working out will help you lose those inches too. Don't worry they will start to melt off in no time:-) I do Chalean Extreme which has 3 circuit/strength training days and 2 cardio and I always add an extra cardio in there somewhere. It took me about 16 pounds before I started to notice a…

Right now my goal weight is 125 but I have been contemplating going down to 115....I am not sure yet because I don't know what I will look like at that weight. I know what I want to look like and I guess I am just going to keep going until I get there. I think you…

I am the same way...no cheat days for me. I eat healthy but I also figure out ways to get my cravings in my diet in a healthy way. I also eat in moderation and it has worked great for me. If I know there is day where I may eat a few more calories I just work out that day to make up for the calories:-) Good Luck! Only you…

I take Alli with every meal. I also work out 6 days a week and eat about a 1200 calorie diet. Alli just blocks 25% of the fat you eat but you have to eat healthy otherwise you will get stomach aches and other side effects because it can't deal with a lot of fatty foods. It is supposed to give you an extra pound lost for…

Mmmm can't wait to try it:-)
