When I started with new vigor at the beginning of the year, I was 170. I decided to cut out refined sugar completely, because my weight loss had stalled, and I was desperate. So, I only ate fruit, veggies, lean protein, and very few carbs (bread, rice, potatoes, etc). I ate dairy occasionally as well. The first week sugar…

Thank you thank you! I really appreciate everyone's input. I did better today with my eating. That is really my biggest challenge, so... one step in the right direction I guess!

Okay, thanks for all of the great motivato=ion! I need to remember all of these.... next time I want a bowl of ice cream, haha. And I LOVE that.... "Nothing tastes as good as thin feels". Fo' Sho'!! I miss being thin, no food compared :)

I have the app.... now I need to use it! :smile:

Okay, you're right. i know i am being lazy. I'm going to add you as a firend :)

Ahhhh! Thanks for posting this. I am never letting my kids eat chicken nuggets again! Seriously?! YUCK!

You are an inspiration!! Way to go!

Okay, thanks for all the info. Do I need to add the extra 500 calories every day? Or can I do a one time change so that it is on my food log each day? Anyway, my baby is huge, he is definitely not starving. He weighs over 18 pounds, so I must make cream or something :laugh:

I'm with everyone about the water retention thing. You always gain the first few weeks when you just start excersising after not doing it for awhile. Just DON'T weigh yourself for a couple weeks! It'll start coming off after that, I promise!

Thank yuo!

I'm new too! I'm excited to get going as well. I'd love to be a check-in pal. I need someone too! I've never done anything like this and I'm a little out of my element. Your trip sounds amazing! I need something like that for motivation... :smile:
