Yes I have 100lbs that I want to lose. I am however breaking it down into smaller amounts so it don't feel over whelming. My first goal is to lose 30 by the end of summer. If I do I am going to go get some pictures done to show off my new size. Feel free to add me as a friend and send msgs to chat.

I put some into my cup of water tonight and it wasn't too bad for the most part.

Well I hate the taste of plain water. I have stopped drinking pop but I then took up crystal right. I feel like I only replaced one bad habit with another. I was wonder what everyone thought of it and if anyone actually drinks it. I hate the taste of plain water. I am thinking after reading all your responses I might try…

I think part of it is because then you know how much you are eating. I mean you could blow all of your calories a day in a meal if your having big portions of bread or pasta. I have also been told that eating a few small meals threw the day keeps you from feeling hungry until your next meal as well as keeping your…

No I do not agree with "cheat days" but I do believe in "cheat meals". A meal allows you to give into a craving with out destroying your hard work all week. You could easily gain back all the lbs you lost during the week in one day if your going back to your bad eating habits. I just go with a chat meal. I have one once a…

The most important part is the same time every day so it is always consistent. I like to get up in the morning, use the washroom and then weight my self before I eat or drink. I find I weight the less then after spending the day eating and gaining water weight for the day. I also think it is important to do it the same day…

I always put the pieces of my meal in individual. I would put in my bread, then my meat, then my toppings and so on. After you have all of the individual items logged, create a meal and call it sub sandwich. This way you know you have the correct calorie amount and from now on you never have to figure it out individually…

By any chance have you cut out caffeine? A lot of people cut it out too quick and it causes headaches. Are you starving your self? If your now having too little calories you could be having hunger headaches.

Thanks for the support and input everyone :)

What do you mean Eh? What's wrong b'ye I am here and Canadian. Go a head and msg me any time you want :)

Thanks Oldperson for the advice. I do normally eat first but I don't think to eat afterwords. I have been using the number the site had given me for calorie intake. Maybe the number is not suiting me well. I guess I am just going to have to get use to this crazy slow process.

No I don't see it as a short time diet. I want to fully change how I eat so I can continue eating like this for the rest of my life. I know I could probably go on Akins, South Beach etc but once I stop the program I would go back to how I use to eat and gain it all back. I want to make a permanent change but at the same…

No it's not close to TOM so I know it is not that. I didn't think at the time to track my inches since it is hard for me to do it by my self and I don't really want someone else to see the numbers. I just find it hard because I feel like I am putting more effort in to get smaller results. I hate whole wheat but I have been…

I have weighed my self on the wii fit before and it is never correct with my digital or doctors scale. I think its because you have to tell the game how heavy your clothes are. You could be saying your clothes weight 4lbs when its only 1 or 2lbs. That is a big weight difference. It is not too bad to get an idea of how much…

I am a 22F that also has PCOS. I am trying to battle my weight in order to help with my symptoms. It hasn't been an easy battle so far but I hope I can over come it. It's hard too because its nothing something that gets talked about or explained. Feel free to msg if you just want to chat.

Yes you are right not all of them a learning disability but they do have a problem. It's not always a matter of just not bothering to learn as an adult. Even if it is not a disability there is no need to make a post just to make fun of them. If you would not want them to make a post just to make fun of your weight, then…

Maybe the person has a learning disability and all you are doing is making fun of them. I'm beginning to remember why I hate posting on community boards.

I have over 100lbs to lose my self as well as my first time counting calories. Feel free to add me if you want to chat.

Thanks for the advice jensadzewicz

Good luck and feel free to msg if you want to chat

Hey I am a new starter my self. I am looking to find people I can chat with for support and learn about other places and share what it is like to live where I do. If that sounds interesting to you, go a head and add me as a friend and send me a message.

Thanks and I tried Metformin but I was taken off it because my body was going to long with the side effects.

Happy Birthday and feel free to add me

Thanks too the both of yous. I am going to have to try them. And yes its very hard to keep on track when I have been craving it for a while now. I think I want to include it into one of my treat nights but I don't want to blow my cal count to have it.

I am a newbie too. I sent you a friend request, feel free to msg me any time.

Hey. Well I am only new to the site but so far everyone seems really nice and great with offering advice. I have tried WW before but I found it to hard to stick too and that I just gained what little I had lost back on. I was using up my points for pizza and other junk so I wasn't changing my eating habits. Anyways…

Don't worry spanky we can do this together. Get your water and fruit in this week so you kick butt again on the scale. You know I will be checking up lol

Wow I am new to this site and new to the idea of tracking calories. I never thought by not eating the calories that I earned from working out I might be doing something bad. I guess I still need to do some more research. Thanks to everyone post for helping me understand more.

Congratulations and good for you. I am a newbie who hopes to have wonderful success just like you.

Hey, I'm a newbie too so lets get to know this website together. Go a head and add me as a friend :)
