Goals question...
So, I set my goals for a loss of 4lbs per month.. Well, my "new month" is every 27th and I've already met that goal for April (I've been sick the past few days with no appetite) When you surpass your goal early in the month do you adjust your future goals to give yourself more of a challenge? I'm not going to slack or…

Finally!
Sunday I re-started my lifestyle change. And today... after my breakfast, I felt super full! The thought of more food makes my tummy hurt! I think my stomach is finally retraining itself to think it needs less food than I used to give it! This will make my new habits easier to stick to when I don't always feel hungry and…

Sushi nutritional values.

How do I calculate or choose which one to add to my diary? The roll has smoked salmon,…

How long does it take...
Before your whole day doesn't revolve around food. About wanting it, and not eating it. Thinking what you can have instead, Thinking what you want and how hard you have to work before you can eat it... UGH! It's starting to annoy me! I am, obviously, a bored eater... I've been good.. but it's taking all my strength ha ha!

Cycling/Spinning Class
I had a blast doing them. I could keep up and not get too winded and my legs never burned .. but were very sore the next day.. lol. Anyway, I had a problem that I couldn't fix and had to stop going. My arches KILL me during the workout and it would get so bad that I would have to just sit and peddle (I know ... better than…

For those who love mini accomplishments... here's one for you! In June I got off maternity leave and started flying again. I tried on an old pair of uniform shorts that i could only get on if I would lie on the bed. And when I stood up there were huge, disgusting bulges on either side of the waist band! So, I have since…

Question...
For those who had more than 30 lbs to lose (or if you had less and this applied to you): Did any of y'all lose a bunch of weight in the first week? Did it slow down after that? I am eating a 1200 calorie diet though according to my weight, height, age etc.... I should be eating a 1800 calorie diet. I am simply full after…
