I buy bottled water and Propel mix packets. I'm not a huge water person either, but the Berry Propel is SO good.

Hey! I'm also 5'5" and I'm 25 years old. My goal weight loss is 50 lbs too, so we have a lot in common. I have a huge problem with will power too (I work in a bakery.. ugh), but I always am sure to have a healthy snack as an option and I keep no unhealthy snacks in the house. That way if I do get bored and want to eat,…

I also aim for 1200 calories a day. I don't allow myself whole cheat days, but instead I just do one cheat meal. And I take those calories into account for the rest of my day.

Dayton, Ohio!

No, unfortunately not. I only get 30 minutes for lunch.

That is some awesome advice, and I will be doing that. I see a lot of tears writing this letter to myself and that will definitely help keep me motivated!

After losing almost 20 pounds, then gaining it all back plus some, so I can relate. I just started back at it today, you are more than welcome to add me.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I think I'm going to try to go before work.

Today is my first day... again. Feel free to add me, we need all the friends and support we can get!

I understand that. I was just curious of other's experiences and just wanted to get a little input, because right now it's kind of up in the air for me. I don't mind waking up early because I'm a morning person, but I don't know if it will drain me before I have to into work and work all day.

I'm also looking for an accountability partner, so please add me!

Thanks for the advice, I will add you.

Thanks for the motivation!

Ok thanks! I will add you.

Thanks for the tips! Luckily, with my job I walk well over 10000 steps a day. And as for breakfast, I do a visalus shake. I am never hungry in the morning, but always thirsty. So that really seems to help. Your 4 month timeline is really an inspiration. Congratulations!

You look great! I've also started at 176. Its been a little over two weeks and I'm down to 167. I was just curious how long it took you to get where you are now? And other than counting calories how did you lose the weight? Thank you!

Hey I'm from Xenia, right outside of Dayton!
