Update: Nothing good to report. I started this thread close to the end of July. I'm still at 189 lbs. So I haven't gained anymore and it's mid August. I finally bought the foods I needed and even got a gym membership this passed Saturday. Here's to really trying...

As of April, when I started at 198, I had have lost 16 pounds and am at 182 pounds. I joined MFP May 18th @ 188. My goal at the end of this month was to be at least 180. I think I'll meet that goal earlier than expected; and in my mind I can only think that at 178, I will have lost 20 pounds since early April! Even from…

I had a bad week. Dreading my weigh-in Sunday, but like Puffy says, "Can't stop. Won't stop, eh eh."

Same here. I'm 26 and I started at 198lbs and am currently at 188lbs. Goal's 150lbs, that leaves me at 38lbs left to go. I hope to be there by late September.

I had the same sentiment. It does really work. Just gotta be consistent; also, after a few weeks (in my case 2) I no longer was "hungry" while doing it. Stick-to-itiveness goes a long way with any diet. To the thread starter, I'm sure you will find your method just like everyone else has. One that suits you and your are…

The way it breaks down is it's really a 1200 Calorie diet. 1 shake powder mix is 110 cals with water, with a half cup of skim milk it's 200 cals. You have that for breakfast and lunch, dinner would consist of 500 cals. The snack are on between those 3 meals and the snack bars are 100 cals (the meal bars take the place of…

Just a few things... For one, Wii boards and a game like EA Interactive Fitness are good for measuring but some factors can affect it's reading. I'll list them... (1) check and make sure you had good batteries. Without the right juice it'll get all wacky. (2) The Wii board must be on a hard flat surface. That means "no…

Awesome! I'm just as happy for you. Very motivating...

I'm on the same caloric intake diet. Been on it since late April when I was 194lbs. It's passed midway May and I have lost 8lbs in 22 days. (Less than a month!) It was hard the first two weeks, but it gets so much easier! Just space your 6 meals every 2 hours, which kicks your metabolism up slightly, and count your…

Actually, let me tell you this. You do not have to be discouraged. Here's why... The fact is weight fluctuates a lot during the day and being weighed is kind of flawed method of measuring fitness. Reason being because when you are weighed, it's everything that is weighed. From muscle/lean tissue and body fat to and as well…

Thank you!
